We met at the beginning of 2020 in Hong Kong. Alex told Helen they would meet for drinks (and go for dinner...if it was going well.) Many drinks later, a drunken dinner was had. We began to date; going on hikes and dinner dates until eventually making it official in June 2020 when Alex took Helen for a hotel stay for her birthday.
We spent a lot of time together due to it being Covid and moved in together by the December. Eventually we were able to meet each other's families in Summer 2022. Things progressed quickly from this point, with a new home and our engagement in December 2022. Wedding preparations had to be put on hold as we welcomed little Isla in August 2023.
Now feels like the right time for us to bring our nearest and dearest together to celebrate our relationship and future together.
