OUTRIGGER Reef Waikiki Beach Resort

Hotel & Room Block

We met online in October 2020, and right from the start, it was clear that we had something special. What began as conversations turned into something much more as we quickly realized how natural it felt to be together. After spending over a year enjoying each other’s company and creating amazing memories, we took a big step forward and moved in together in December 2021, setting up our first home in Mesa, Arizona. Our relationship continued to grow as we learned more about each other, built a life together, and shared everyday moments that strengthened our bond. We’ve always shared a love for adventure and spontaneity, which led to one of the biggest adventures yet—moving to Hawaii in December 2022. The islands became a place of discovery for us both, not only in terms of new experiences but also in terms of our relationship. Hawaii gave us time to reflect, grow even closer, and appreciate all that we had built together. In October 2023, we made the decision to move back to Phoenix to be closer to our family and friends. Through every part of our journey—whether in Arizona, Hawaii, or back again—our two dachshunds, Olive and Marty, have been with us every step of the way. They’ve been our loyal companions during weekend trips to the river, walks along the beach, and cozy nights at home. One of the highlights of our time in Hawaii was getting engaged at our favorite beach, Ko Olina. It was the perfect place to take that next step, surrounded by the beauty of the ocean and the incredible memories we had made there. After nearly four years together, that moment symbolized everything we had been through and all the exciting things still to come. As we reflect on nearly Four amazing years together, we’re grateful for all the love, laughter, and growth we’ve shared. Our story has been full of unforgettable moments, and we’re so excited to start this next chapter as we celebrate our love with the people who have supported and cheered us on throughout this journey.
