It all began in April 2021, when fate (and Bumble) brought us together. After chatting, we were surprised to discover that we lived only a mile and a half apart yet somehow, our paths had never crossed before.

In our first meet-up we discovered we aligned on so many things like travel, health, hikes, boats, country concerts, and after hours of conversation it felt as though our soul's have known each other before.

Two days later, on April 18th, we had our first official date, which we now lovingly call “Drinks on the Water.” Jason picked me up, and together we spent the day out on his boat, floating on the Delta, sharing stories, laughter, and a few quiet moments under the sun. As the day turned into night, the sunset was absolutely breathtaking. Little did we know that it planted a seed that watching the sunset together was going to be a staple in our relationship. That evening, as we left the water, we both knew deep down that life had just changed forever, and we couldn’t imagine a future without each other.

Since then, we’ve built a beautiful life filled with camping trips, family gatherings, memories abroad and quiet nights doing absolutely nothing. No matter where we are, we’re happiest just being together. Now, we’re beyond excited to take the next step and become husband and wife, continuing this incredible journey side by side with love, laughter, and faith guiding the way. We are so blessed to share this with you.

XOXO, Soon to be Kristina Faria
