Our Wedding

We both met back sophomore year of High School through mutual friends and have stayed friends ever since throughout all the years! Arie was always someone Jamie could confide in and knew he was always there for her. Needless to say, Arie had a High School crush on Jamie, but were just friends! In January 2015, We started spending alot of time together since their friends were away at College. Slowly but surely we both started growing feelings for eachother. Both having very similar interests in many things. What hit the jack pot was one night during spring break, Jamie knew he was the one when he played “this is what dreams are made of” from the Lizzie McGuire movie and played it about 100 times that night. Arie officially asked Jamie to be his girlfriend August 14th 2015 at a concert! Our relationship has been a rollercoaster of ups and downs throughout the years but, at the end of the day we’d go back and ride that rollercoaster again! Anything that comes our way has only made us stronger as a couple. In 2019, our love for everything Disney took over, we started taking yearly trips & vlogging our trips and sharing the magic with the world! One day, our dream is to live in Florida near Disney! Once the pandemic hit, we decided to take our relationship to the next “step” and we got an adorable little Pomeranian named Tinkerbell! As usual, this past April we planned a trip to Disney World for Jamie’s birthday, and Arie popped the question April 12th, 2 days before her birthday, right infront of the castle, in the most magical place & where all your dreams come true!
