Our Wedding

Here is our story: We ran into each other at a bar one night, and Chris spotted me from across the room. He came over and invited me to join his table—I politely declined. But something about that night felt different. A few minutes later, when a seat opened up at my table, Chris made his move. I told him, “My friend was sitting there,” and without missing a beat, he pulled up another chair and said, “She can sit here—I want to talk to you.” And that was it—the moment everything shifted. We started talking, and suddenly it all felt easy. Natural. Like maybe this had been waiting to happen all along. That night, I saved his number in my phone as “love of my life.” Somehow, I just knew. From then on, we were inseparable. Just a few months later, Chris moved in, and over the next five years we built a life full of love, laughter, and adventure. One of our favorite traditions is collecting a rock from every place we explore—little pieces of the memories we’ve made together. Then came the most unforgettable adventure of all. On top of a mountain, surrounded by clouds, Chris turned to me and said, “I found a rock…” When I looked back, he was down on one knee, asking me to spend forever with him. And of course, I said yes. Because sometimes, the best love stories aren’t rushed—they’re patiently waiting for the exact right moment to begin
