Pooja and Richard’s friends set them up on a blind date. It was going to a fun, casual double date, but their friends suddenly had to cancel! Richard definitely still wanted to meet Pooja, so he picked her up at her home. Right off the bat, Pooja’s hard-to-please step-father was impressed with Richard and his background in the marines.

Pooja is normally the chattier of the couple, but on the blind date, Richard could not stop talking! He didn’t want any awkward silences; he wanted to impress this girl! And Pooja was impressed. The couple quickly became and item, and will wed in September!

Getting together with Richard meant that Pooja was no a new mama to a sweet dog, Apollo! Of course, they had to include him in their engagement session. He was excited to be included, but also on his best behavior! Congratulations, Richard and Pooja!!
