Anastasia’s and David’s lives crossed paths in the most unexpected and beautiful way.

How We Met

In the wake of Hurricane Maria, the island of St. Croix, where David lives, faced unimaginable challenges. Among the many who stepped up to help, a group of Anastasia’s friends traveled to St. Croix for disaster relief work. During their time there, they met David and quickly formed a bond.

After returning home, they invited David to visit them in New York. Little did anyone know that this trip would change everything. It was during this visit that David and Anastasia met for the first time.

What started as a chance meeting grew into something extraordinary—a connection that weathered time and distance to bring us to where they are today.

Many trips to New York later, they realized they were more than just a great match—they were the perfect team. Every moment they spent together brought them closer and made it clear that what they had was truly special.

Over time, they have developed a love built on a foundation of trust, faith and shared love for Jehovah God. Then, on September 27th, David planned the perfect moment to ask the question that would change their lives: “Will you marry me?”

Now, they are overjoyed to begin this next chapter together.

From the couple: "We can’t wait to celebrate our love with all of you—our cherished family and friends—on July 12th, 2025. Thank you for being part of our journey and for making our special day even more meaningful."
