Our journey began with laughs and smiles, and from the start, it was clear that something special was unfolding. Less than a month into knowing each other, we made our relationship official. Just two months in, "I love You's" were exchanged—we knew from the beginning, this was it.

Since then, we’ve shared countless adventures and traveled to incredible places like Nashville, Charlotte, Bahamas, the Hawaiian Islands, and San Diego.

We spent a few wonderful years together in our cozy Costa Mesa beach cottage, a place filled with sunshine and love, before Ryan’s job took us north.

Northern California was not a place we expected to call home, but it quickly became a beloved part of our story. Here, we’ve had the time to grow together, explore new surroundings, and navigate both the joyous and challenging moments of life. We’ve enjoyed bike rides by the lake, discovered new favorite spots to eat at, and made lasting friendships.

Now, after 8 1/2 years of shared experiences and cherished moments, we are thrilled to celebrate this next chapter and make our commitment official. We couldn’t be happier with where we are and look forward to all that the future holds.

Thank you for being part of our journey.
