Adrian and Julia's love story began in the fall of 2017 that would change their lives forever. Adrian, a freshman at Arizona State University, and Julia, attending Grand Canyon University, decided to meet again for a movie date. Their choice? The horror film "It." Despite Adrian's intense fear of clowns, he bravely agreed to watch it with Julia, a decision that spoke volumes about his budding feelings for her.

As they pursued their respective studies—Julia in nursing and Adrian working as a tire technician while in school—they saw each other grow and mature. The couple became college sweethearts, supporting one another through the ups and downs of academic life. In 2020, they took a big step forward, moving in together with two other roommates. This period of shared living was filled with laughter, challenges, and deepening love.

Their relationship continued to flourish, and soon they decided to live just the two of them. This new chapter brought with it a furry addition to their family—a puppy named Bennett. The couple's love for adventure and each other led them to a memorable vacation in Kauai. It was here, on a secluded beach with breathtaking scenery, that Adrian surprised Julia by getting down on one knee and proposing. Overwhelmed with joy, Julia said yes through tears of happiness.

In 2022, their family grew again with the adoption of Riley, a rescue dog who joined Bennett in filling their home with even more love and laughter. Professionally, Julia achieved her goal of becoming a pediatric ER nurse at Phoenix Children's Hospital, while Adrian's hard work paid off with his acceptance into Mississippi College School of Law—a dream come true.

Faced with the prospect of long-distance separation, Adrian and Julia made a decision that truly exemplified their commitment. They chose to move together to Mississippi, prioritizing their relationship above all else. This move demonstrated not only their love for each other but also their willingness to support each other's dreams and ambitions.

From a first date at the movie theatres to a cross-country move, Adrian and Julia's journey has been one of growth, love, and unwavering support. Their story is a testament to the power of modern love, the strength found in facing challenges together, and the beautiful adventure that unfolds when two people commit to growing side by side.
