Some love stories start with a romantic meet-cute in a café or a chance encounter at the park, but ours began somewhere a little louder: a bar.

It was a regular weeknight, and in fact Thomas had planned to stay home. None of us expected anything extraordinary to happen. We were just two strangers in a room full of chatter, laughter, and clinking glasses—until a serendipitous moment brought us together.

Somehow, amidst the noise and the crowd, our paths crossed. What began as a simple conversation quickly turned into something more—especially when we discovered we both had the biggest dogs in Charlotte.

From sharing funny dog stories to swapping tips on the best parks and treats, it felt like we’d found an instant connection. Before we knew it, a brief conversation had turned into the beginning of something unforgettable.

Fast forward to today, and not only do we have a love story, but our pups are now the best of friends too. It’s safe to say they played a big part in bringing us together, and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

Now, we’re ready to take this next step, surrounded by the people—and the paws—that matter most. We can’t wait to celebrate with all of you!

All our love,

Laura and Thomas
