Save The Date

It all began five years ago, during the 4th of July weekend, when Joseph and Chyna met through mutual friends at a family cookout in Brandywine, MD. Joseph caught Chyna’s eye when he showed up wearing a pair of Black Cement Jordan 3s—her favorite sneakers. That small detail sparked a connection, and the two quickly bonded over their shared taste in music and common friends. As the summer unfolded, their friendship blossomed. They spent more time together at various gatherings, but it wasn’t until August 2020 that things took a turn. Chyna hosted her best friend and now first-born son's Godmother’s birthday party, where Joseph invited Chyna and her friends to his September birthday celebration. While she initially declined, Chyna later decided to join the group for the now-infamous 2020 boat trip! On September 12th, Joseph had his dad wait for Chyna, who was the last to arrive at the birthday celebration. From there, the group set sail across the Potomac, dancing, singing, laughing, and enjoying the day. After the boat ride, Chyna’s friends planned a sleepover at her newly purchased home, but Joseph invited everyone to his place for a game and movie night. It was there that he and Chyna discovered a shared love for learning and realized they had similar academic achievements. Their friend group gelled perfectly, and Joseph’s 25th birthday became one to remember. As the early morning hours crept in, and as Chyna and her friends prepared to leave, Joseph rushed outside to catch them before they pulled off. He knocked on the window and asked Chyna for her number, and though she was hesitant, Chyna trusted him enough to give it to him—her first time sharing her number with a man. And she’s so glad she did! From that moment on, Joseph and Chyna were inseparable. They spent the next week together—playing board games, watching their rival football teams face off, making tacos, and enjoying dinner dates. Their undeniable connection grew with each passing day. Five years later, after countless adventures, the birth of two beautiful sons, and the creation of a loving home, Joseph and Chyna invite you to join them as they begin their next chapter together.
