Even though we cant imagine what life was like without each other now, it was only about 5 years ago that we were once strangers. Justin was in the Marines and stationed in NC, and Erica was in Buffalo, starting off her nursing career when we somehow met each other. We both like to think it was absolute fate (with some help from our friends Kyle and Leah too!) that our paths somehow crossed and not a day has gone by without each other since.
After sticking through 3 long years of dating long distance, with endless Facetime calls and trips back and forth to see each other, we decided to move in with each other and make Buffalo our first home. The distance has made us appreciate the small things we get to do together now, and it has made life with one another that much sweeter.
Fast forward to October 22, 2023 on a little getaway trip to Canada, we were watching the sun set over Lake Huron when Justin got down on one knee and proposed! There was no doubt in either of our minds that our forever was meant to be with each other.
We are so excited to invite you back to the country that has such a special place in our heart and plays such an important role in our love story and we cant wait for you all to be apart this next chapter with us! See you in June!!
