Our Wedding

It was love at first Charisma Save! Lisa and Daniel met through mutual friends to play board games and eventually began a Dungeons &amp; Dragons campaign together. With Lisa's Warlock and Daniel as the Dungeon Master, they began their first of many adventurous quests together. Ever since, the two have bonded over many hikes through forests and mountains, journeys to haunts both local and abroad, and cozy nights spent enjoying mystery novels, horror movies, and escape room games.

We first really got to know each other through Dungeons &amp; Dragons. We first started playing together in 2019, and have been in numerous campaigns together, playing with our friends and creating the most epic tales together. Games are certainly a key part of our life together, from Nancy Drew videogames to classic boardgames to too many hours adventuring through Baldur's Gate III.

The Games We Love!
