Many feel like their lives went on “pause” during March 2020, but it’s when our story began.

Fate intervened when Sabra asked to invite her brother, Zach, and his friend - Mitch - to join my birthday weekend celebration. Just a week before the world shut down, Mitch and I found each other meeting in New Orleans (a city notorious for its romance!).

Our friend groups merged, spending several weekends on lake trips. We always found ourselves to be the last two awake, talking about everything and nothing all at once in the quiet hours of the night.

As we became best friends, it seems everyone but the two of us knew we were destined for each other. Not to the surprise of anyone, we became an official couple in May 2022 on a trip to Boston. After a bit of long distance, my dogs and I - O'Malley and Jax - moved to San Antonio in December 2022. On a beautiful, sunny day in March 2023, Mitch proposed in Eisenhower Park on a walk with the boys.

To borrow from Taylor Swift, Mitch and I had our fair share of “invisible string” moments - in each other’s orbit, but not meeting until fate felt the time was right. I went to Texas Tech his senior year, and I moved to Houston right when he moved back to San Antonio from Houston. We even both lived in the same house in San Antonio - just not at the same time!

As our invisible string grows into an everlasting thread, we’re excited for you to share in our joy as we tie the knot.
