Our Story

How We Met

Brandy and Joshua are from the same town and went to the same school district, but Joshua was a couple years ahead of her and he decided to be home schooled once he hit 10th grade. Brandy didn't really know him in school but she saw him in her "People You Might Know" on Facebook and recognized his name (she also thought her was pretty cute). So, she sent him a message and they hit it off from there. A couple days later, he took her on a date to DeJohn's in Fredonia, NY, then to the beach, and topped it off with ice cream from Frosty Treat in Irving, NY. On April 14, 2018, Joshua asked Brandy to be his girlfriend. Brandy graduated college in 2018 and was headed off to Finger Lakes Community College for 2 years in Canandaigua, NY. Joshua was dedicated and traveled out to see her once or twice a week, driving over 2 hours each way. Brandy moved home from FLCC in the March of 2020 when COVID-19 shut everything down and finished her Associate in Applied Science Fish and Wildlife Degree in the May of 2020. Joshua delivers packages for UPS and Brandy is working on the completion of her Bachelor's of Wildlife and Fisheries Sciences Degree online through Oregon State University. Brandy and Joshua love being outdoors, traveling, going to concerts and other events, and trying new restaurants. They are so excited to have you with them on their special day!

The Proposal

On March 14, 2019, Joshua took Brandy to dinner at a hibachi restaurant in Canandaigua then took her to Kershaw Park on the lake and proposed under the gazebo. He asked a girl that Brandy's roommate knew if she would do a "photo session" for them because he was told many times by Brandy that she would like him to hire a hidden photographer when the day came. After a few pictures were taken, Joshua got down on one knee and proposed. Brandy was too excited that she couldn't even SAY yes, she just shook her head yes and started crying.
