Like a modern-day fairytale, our love story began with a simple swipe. Our paths crossed in the digital realm, where algorithms led us to each other's hearts. Little did we know, those virtual connections would bloom into a beautiful reality, intertwining our lives in ways we never imagined possible. Our journey together started with a single swipe, but our love story is written in the stars.

Our story began late summer of 2019. Our first date was at Mi Ranchito and from there our love blossomed into something we never knew could exist. In the midst of a world turned upside down, we found solace in each other's company. The isolation of COVID-19 became our crucible, testing the strength of our bond and the depth of our love. Despite the challenges we faced—joblessness, illness, and the upheaval of moving four times in as many years—we stood united, facing each obstacle hand in hand.

It was during those trying times that we discovered new facets of ourselves and each other. We learned to cherish the small moments, finding joy in the simplest of gestures. Our shared experiences forged an unbreakable bond, teaching us resilience and the true meaning of partnership.

As the world slowly reopens its doors, we emerge stronger, more connected than ever before. Our journey through adversity has only deepened our love, proving that together, we can weather any storm. And now, as we stand on the cusp of forever, we do so with hearts full of gratitude and love. Our journey, marked by challenges and triumphs, has led us to this moment: the promise of forever in marriage. With each hurdle we've overcome, our love has only grown stronger, our commitment deeper.

As we look ahead to our future as husband and wife, we do so with unwavering certainty that together, we can conquer anything life throws our way. Our love story is a testament to the power of love, resilience, and unwavering commitment. We are excited to embark on this new chapter together, hand in hand, as we say 'I do' and begin our happily ever after.
