Our story began on April 15th, 2024 a date that will forever hold a special place in our hearts. What started as a simple walk along the canal in Old Town, right next to Gabrielle’s salon, turned into something neither of us expected, but both of us had quietly hoped for.

That day, we talked, laughed, and shared stories as if we’d known each other forever. There was a peace in that moment the kind that only God can orchestrate. From the very beginning, it felt like something bigger was unfolding.

Since then, we’ve continued to grow not just in love, but in faith, friendship, and partnership. Whether it's the little things like coffee runs and late-night talks or the big things like dreaming about the future, every moment has felt like a gift. Through it all, we’ve seen God's hand guiding us, shaping us, and reminding us that love rooted in faith truly changes everything.

Of course, not everything has been perfectly aligned especially on Sundays during football season. Gabrielle is a proud Seahawks fan, while Austin stands strong with the Cardinals. Game days can get a little competitive, but it's all in good fun (mostly). If anything, it’s one more thing that keeps life exciting and keeps us on our toes!

On October 4th, 2025, Austin asked Gabrielle to be his wife, and with joyful hearts and teary eyes, we stepped into a new chapter of our journey together.

Now we’re preparing for our wedding day with so much gratitude for each other, for the love we’ve found, and for the friends and family who have supported us every step of the way. We can’t wait to celebrate this next step with you!
