We asked for you to tell us about your marching band/drum corps/indoor ensemble relationships and you delivered!
But first, let's recall this incredible moment from the 2017 Drum Corps International World Championships: After semifinals on Friday night, one couple from the Sacramento Mandarins and Bluecoats decided to share their love following the age-out ceremony. Awwwwww!
You can still continue adding on to the thread if you haven't submitted your own pictures of you and your significant other yet! Check out some of our favorites from Twitter:
Seat Partners For Life
We first competed against each other at BOA St. Louis in 2004. We both went on to march Drum Corps from 2007-2010. Her at Phantom Regiment, me at Blue Stars. We got married in 2015 and now we're Seat Partners for the rest of time pic.twitter.com/qdmnGgb8n2

Feeling Bloo
My best friend and teammate... We ended up standing next to each other in arc this summer and grew close as the season went on. He lives in Illinois and I'm in Florida but it's worth the distance. We're both looking forward to spending our age out together again ? pic.twitter.com/Gk7hYysfZJ

Geared Up For Life
We met in high school doing marching band. He's the one that convinced me to march WGI/DCI for the first time and always encouraged me to pursue my dreams. 5 years later I have my favorite quad players last name & the last pic was our wedding cake ❤️? pic.twitter.com/7Zr0QbuJRR

Make No Bones About It
We met Crossmen of 15, started dating during tour, and we’ve been long distance off tour and on tour since he aged out in 2016. No one has ever been more kind or respected me so much before. We hope to have our own band program together one day ❤️ pic.twitter.com/bMeunnniWZ

The Merry Monarch
He convinced me to march at Monarch, ended up marching with him there for the 2017 season and now I get to march with him in the summer for his age out at Blue Knights! #mfbkb pic.twitter.com/o7PlRrqdIg

Most Precious Crusaders
We wanted to march out ageout summers together. I was unfortunately cut from the drumline, so I learned how to play Contra instead and got to have an amazing summer with the best seat partner ever ❤️ @Sofia_DaSilva_ pic.twitter.com/uH6z4xHp0d
