It was 2008. Kenny was looking for a change in his career and was offered a promotion at work, but there was a catch – he had to find a replacement to take over his position before he could move up.
She was looking for a change, too. After graduating from college, Elise was living in Dallas but looking to move back to Houston to start her post-college life. She wanted to pursue her dream career in advertising, but moving to Houston was her first priority. So she packed her bags and down the state of Texas she came.
Meanwhile, Kenny took advantage of social media and placed the position on Facebook. A friend of his, Kaitlin (who also so happens to be Elise’s Matron of Honor in their wedding!), said that she had a friend whom she thought would be interested in the position. Elise interviewed for the position and was hired on as Kenny’s replacement.
The two began working together in 2010. Little did they know that their career changes would soon turn into a life change. The two started dating shortly after they began working together, despite the company’s STRICT no-dating-coworkers policy, and had to keep their relationship a secret at work to avoid the risk of losing their jobs (I love this little detail! Love always wins 🙂 )
Now it’s 2012. Neither of them work for that company any longer, but they are both working their dream jobs, all-the-while knowing that in less than a year each will be married to the man and woman of their dreams 🙂
Night lights and loads of laughs,
HK
