Jasmine and Anthony met July 4th, 2015 at North Ave beach. They were introduced by a mutual friend they knew for many years. It was not exactly love at first sight, only god’s will. They saw each other almost every weekend after they met and formed a friendship. It was a summer to remember!

New Year’s Day of 2016, Anthony asked Jasmine to be his girlfriend. He asked her in person right after the countdown and of course, she said YES! Little did they know what that year alone had in store for them and years to follow.

Shortly there after, Jasmine and Anthony moved into their first apartment together. They were both eager to find their own place and leave their mother’s home. They rented a small, two bedroom basement in the city, where they created a safe haven. There, memories were made and the couple become inseparable overtime.

Later that year, Jasmine and Anthony were pregnant with their first child together. The couple had already traveled on their first cruise, celebrated birthdays/holidays and gathered their families together. Everything was happening so quickly for them, just within one year!

In July 2017, they welcomed their son Ziah Anthony into the world. The couple still reside at their first apartment, where they created a nursery for their precious baby boy. It was a very happy time!

Months into parenthood, the couple eventually packed up and moved into a bigger and nicer apartment. It was their last apartment they shared while living in Chicago.

In November of 2020, Jasmine and Anthony packed up once again and left Chicago. They moved to TEXAS! The couple always spoke about one day leaving Chicago to pursue other things and warmer weather. For many years, they wanted to move to Florida but overtime, that decision changed.

Texas has been their home now for the last few years. They purchased their first home all within a year of leaving Chicago. The couple also welcomed their second child, Zamaya Jade in September of 2021. They now had their perfect pair(boy and girl), their house and their new lives in a new place!

“God truly blessed us and for that we are so grateful.”

Anthony proposed to Jasmine in May of 2023. They found their perfect wedding venue in October of that year and have been planning their big day ever since! They will marry on February 15, 2026 before their close family and friends. In 2026, Jasmine and Anthony will also celebrate 10 years of LOVE, pure bliss and now their wedding!

“We cannot wait to celebrate with all our family and friends!” 🫶🏻
