We met at this very spot & had our first date at Barcelona Wine Bar in Nashville, Tennessee in May 2023. We stayed at the restaurant drinking a bottle of wine until the waitress told us at almost midnight that the restaurant was closing and we had to leave. The rest is history ;)

Our first trip together to Chattanooga, Tennessee, where we spent the weekend kayaking & exploring to close out our first spring/summer together!

One of our favorite spots to hang out is downtown Franklin, Tennessee!

We love a Tennessee sunset!

Another favorite spot- Cheekwood Gardens in Nashville, Tennessee!

Cesar took Ellen home to Peru & to see Macchu Pichu!

We visited the Cathedral in Lima where we are going to get married!

On our 3rd date we had a picnic & it has been a staple of ours ever since!

Ellen took Cesar home to Chicago!

Contrary to popular belief, Cesar likes sports other than soccer ;)

We attended countless weddings together!

On November 1st, 2024, Cesar popped the question & we got engaged! On January 24, 2025 we had a small wedding in Nashville beginning our married life together.

We can't wait to have our religious wedding ceremony and celebrate in Lima so we are able to share our special day with you all on January 3, 2026, in Lima, Peru!
