How We Met
Travis & Emoni is the Epitome of when Swiping goes RIGHT! Mid-Pandemic, they both found themselves browsing through Bumble (an Online dating app) and eventually matching on October 18th, 2021. After just a few days of chatting on Bumble, Emoni suggested they use the video chat feature on the app. Travis, unaware of said feature, immediately sent his number instead. That evening they spent 7 hours on Facetime discussing food and their favorite meals they enjoy cooking. Food has always been the glue to their relationship. After three very long days of talking on the phone, Emoni Lured Travis over to her house with the promise of her infamous Non-bake Cheesecake, which is Travis’ favorite dessert, On October 22nd, 2021. Following 3 hours of deep conversation, they both proclaimed they had found their soulmate. For Emoni, it was a conversation with herself in the mirror asking the simple question ...” Is this my Husband?”. Moments after Emoni returned from the restroom, Travis was more direct and openly shared “This is it for me” without prior knowledge of Emoni’s epiphany with herself. Both Travis and Emoni would say it was love at first slice. They would also agree once Travis came over, he never left. After Hours and weeks of spending time together, they discovered they were mentally, morally, and spiritually aligned. In early December, they mutually decided they wanted to elope. There was no doubt in their minds that Travis and Emoni would be together FOREVER. On February 22nd, 2022, the couple Eloped in Las Vegas accompanied by their mothers, Emoni’s Cousin Toni, and Travis’ brother Tareek. The plan was always to have a traditional Ceremony with their friends and Loved ones post-pandemic. We invite you to experience
