The Meet Cute
It’s possible that they first crossed paths at the Takoma Park Recreational where they both loved to play and swim as children. But in this movie you’ll have to skip forward to a Christmas party in 2018 where Kamelah, born in New Jersey and Roderick born in Washington DC, first remember meeting. Roderick made an impression, earning him that first date at Bukom Café in Adams Morgan.
The First Date
Clearly that was a brilliant choice because they discovered how much they both had in common, especially trying new foods and dancing to live music. The couple continues to dance, hike, travel, play games, try new things and work out together. They also bonded picking up their puppy Bruno together, and Bruno continues to bring them joy on long walks together.
The Growing Relationship
There are so many memorable moments for these two. From the feeling you get when you know you’re with the right person and it seems like Anita Baker is singing specifically about your love and Nas is telling you the World is Yours, to that very first time that Roderick learned to ski with Kamelah by his side. The memories keep multiplying as the couple continues to bond over the shared value of family and spending time with family. Every day they notice the little things and discove more to love about one another. Roderick enjoys teasing Kam about always being on Pinterest and Kamelah teases Roderick about his adventurous homemade recipes. And they both know that when Kamelah convinces Roderick to go shopping with her to just get “one” thing… they’ll be going to multiple stores!
The Proposal
Kamelah’s passion for life and compassion for others brought Roderick down on one knee to propose. Roderick’s resilient spirit and caring patient demeanor is part of the reason she said “Yes!”
On Saturday November 13, 2021 Roderick took Kamelah on a brunch cruise on the Spirit of Washington, and in true Kamelah fashion, she had a ball. Kamelah, unaware of what Roderick had in store for her especially Kamelah spent the afternoon eating, drinking, and of course dancing! After a fun-filled and tiring afternoon, Roderick told Kamelah, that he made plans for dinner at 7pm. Still tired from the afternoon, Kamelah begged Roderick to cancel the dinner plans and just order “pizza instead” (unaware of the proposal to come). After a quite a bit of persuasion, Kamelah agreed to fight through and go to dinner, but still didn’t understand “why” they had to go back out. Roderick made dinner plans at Bourbon Steak, at the Four Season Hotel in the Georgetown area of Washington D.C. Prior to arriving to dinner, Roderick took Kamelah to the Georgetown Waterfront where he proposed. The couple then went to dinner, and then celebrated the proposal with one last surprise, their friends and family waiting at the W hotel.
The Wedding
Each and every one of you is a vital part of the couple’s story. That’s why the couple is overwhelmed with gratitude that you are considering joining them. Don’t miss this critical part of the plot in the Roderick and Kamelah story. Yes, there will be fun and games, dancing and celebration on the beach in Cancun Mexico. It’s going to be EPIC!
