From Concettas Perspective:

Christian and I met like many people today meet-- online. Technically, we met on two -- Hinge and Catholic Match. We talked for a few days before deciding to meet in person -- at Bravo in Pittston. I remember walking over to the restaurant from my apartment, unsure what would come from this first date. When I walked in, I saw his smiling face at me and immediately felt both at peace and excited for the night to come. We talked and talked and talked (and had some super delicious food!) and time flew by. Dinner was ending and neither of us wanted to leave, so we walked over to the Tomato Bar for drinks and to keep the night going. I remember never wanting that first date to end. After countless dates, trips, experiences, and lengthy FaceTime dates and deep conversations, I really did grow with my best friend.

For those of you who don't know me, I had a previous relationship that lead to an engagement- one in which God encouraged me to leave. I was able to learn what I wanted, needed, and deserved in a Godly relationship and marriage. That knowledge and wisdom helped me appreciate my relationship with Christian even more. I grew up seeing such amazing and strong marriage relationships - my parents and both sets of my grandparents; and I knew I always wanted a marriage like theirs, however I think God needed me to see the opposite before I could truly appreciate what I knew I wanted and what I deserved. Christian is my best friend - he respects me, he inspires me, he supports me, he sees me, he hears me. He is my peace when times get stressful. We are always able to have fun and smile, whether we are traveling somewhere new and exciting or just sitting on the couch watching a show or movie. I just look at him and immediately feel loved and can't help but smile. I love Christian so much and can't wait to choose him not only on January 4th but every single day of our lives! I am so excited to continue on our journey together, through the ups and downs, always having each others' backs and supporting and loving each other through everything life throws our way.

Thank you to our family and friends for always supporting and praying for us. We ask you for continued prayers and love as we begin this next journey in life!
