There wasn't a doubt in their minds that marriage was in their future, but their priority was to start their family. So in November of 2023, they began their journey with IVF. They planned a celebratory vacation over New Year's, where Mike surprised Adrienne by proposing on a sunset boat ride.

There was a brief attempt at wedding planning (she even said yes to a dress), but those plans were quickly derailed. After a roller coaster of a year, they had a successful embryo transfer on October 4, just in time for Baby's first Rocky Horror.

While attending another wedding in January and stumbling upon their would-be wedding bands, they decided there was no time like the present. Taking advantage of a conference trip to New York, and with just two weeks notice, Mike and Adrienne eloped in Manhattan on a picture perfect day, February 21, 2025.

Three and a half months later, their new best friend joined the family. Marian Joyce Dobson arrived as perfect as could be, and life has been bliss with their sweet little girl.

Exactly one year after they first said 'I do,' Mike and Adrienne are beyond happy to be doing so again, this time in the presence of their friends, family, and daughter.
