We first crossed paths when we matched on a dating app called Holy.

Our first date was at El Vez in Fort Lauderdale, where we shared laughs, stories, and realized how much we had in common.

We kicked off our concert adventures with Manà, and it was the perfect start to our shared love for live music.

Watching our first sunrise together will be a moment we’ll never forget as we watched the sky change colors and felt the world wake up around us.

With time we realized that crossing paths was not by coincidence but by faith, we decided to have a church date. A special experience, where we connected not just with each other, but with something deeper, reflecting on our shared values and faith.

Then came the holly jolly season, Candy's favorite holiday. We couldn't have asked for a better time to be together filled with laughter, warmth, and the magic of the season, as we created new traditions and memories that will last a lifetime.

Under the most beautiful of circumstances, our proposal was a moment that took my breath away. A beautiful surprise, planned to perfection by my sneaky fiancé, who managed to raise no suspicion at all. When the moment finally came, I was completely caught off guard, overwhelmed with love and joy. With every word spoken and every look shared, we knew this was the start of our forever.

Our engagement party was more than just a celebration. It was a culmination of everything that had led us to this moment. We were surrounded by our closest friends and family, we celebrated not just our love, but the incredible support system that has shaped us both. It was a day full of emotion, connection, gratitude and excitement for the life we’re about to build together.

And then the engagement photoshoot—certainly more than just pictures. It was a reflection of how far we’ve come and a quiet acknowledgment that our wedding day is drawing near. As we stood together, laughing, holding hands, and simply being ourselves, we realized just how lucky we are to have found one another—the love, the growth, and the journey ahead. Each photo became a symbol of the life we’ve built and the future we’re about to create together, knowing that soon, we’ll say "I do" and make this love official forever.
