We met in Seattle in 2020, where what started as a simple quarantine swipe on a dating app, turned into the kind of connection that just made sense. Even when it’s just through video calls from afar, we grow together through it all. A few years (and a lot of nacho competitions) later, we packed up and moved across the country to Virginia. Since then, we’ve bought a house, adopted two mischievous cats, and built a life that feels very “us.”

We’re best friends first, partners always, and absolutely crazy in love. Our favorite things include taking road trips with no real plan, making tailgate fried rice at Commanders football games, and spending far too many hours playing video games where all we do is farm (who knew virtual crops could be so serious?).

Through it all, we’ve learned that the best adventures are the ones we share - and we can’t wait for this next one: getting married!
