He almost didn’t show up for their first date.

The night of their first date (facilitated by some mutual friends), they watched Toto at the Alabama Theatre. It was Christina’s favourite musical artist, so she was excited to watch them live and spend some time around Evan. But when he got sick that day, it threatened their chances of getting to know each other at one of Birmingham’s finest venues.

Alas, he was convinced by a friend to still go, despite feeling pretty physically miserable, and the rest really is history.

Christina + Evan are both lawyers in Birmingham, and you can just tell they were made for each other. They love one another with ease, fun, companionship and they have a blast being in each others’ presence. Pop the bubbly, let’s get the future Pantazis’ married next May!
