Our Wedding

We crossed paths at Dell's office in Austin back in January 2020, and our story started when we officially kicked off our dating journey that March. Navigating a new relationship amid a pandemic wasn't quite the script we had in mind, but hey, life loves throwing us surprises! With more time on our hands than we ever expected, we dove headfirst into unraveling each other's quirks, passions, and dreams. Who knew a bit of social distancing could bring us this close?

Chicago is home to two stunning waterfronts — Lake Michigan, with miles of sandy shoreline, and the Chicago River, a skyscraper canyon through the heart of the city. And both offer plenty of opportunities to get out on the water. You can rent jet skis and paddleboards on the lakefront and kayaks on the river and lake. You can even rent small electric boats!
