Our story began in the Summer of 2016. We met online and took a chance on each other. Although unknown to us, our communities were subtly intertwined, and though our paths had not yet crossed, our story was set to unfold.

Following a slightly awkward first date, our connection grew as we spent the rest of that summer almost inseparably. Late night drives, sunsets, lakeside picnics, countless adventures, and endless laughter, the foundation of our story was being built.

On August 23rd, 2016, we became official and less than a month later, we said I love you and met each other's families.

Over the ensuing seven years, our love became a testament to resilience and unwavering faith. Through joyous moments, hardships, and profound losses— we clung to each other, fueled by prayer and unconditional love. Together, we encouraged our dreams, nurtured our aspirations, and fostered faith in Jesus.

Our story reached a climax in the Summer of 2023. In Paris, France — the city of love — we exchanged the promise of forever. The journey, taking us through the cities of Richmond and Montreal, felt like a poetic full-circle moment, affirming that this was part of his plan for us. Our engagement in the romantic city of Paris was a celebration of our love and a testament to God's faithfulness in every moment of our seven incredible years together. Now, our story continues to unfold, promising a future filled with love, laughter, and endless adventures yet to come, and we can't wait to celebrate this day with all of you!
