Our Wedding

It all started with a swipe. One simple motion on Tinder led me to the love of my life. Her smile caught my eye first, but it was our late-night conversations that truly sealed my fate. From the first date, I knew she was different—kind, funny, and somehow, she just got me.  Then, the world changed. A global pandemic hit, turning everything upside down. But instead of pulling us apart, it brought us closer together—literally. We made the bold choice to move in together, navigating lockdowns, takeout nights, and endless Netflix marathons side by side. What could have been a test became a confirmation: we were meant to be.  Our little family grew with Chloe, Koda, and Capone—our three dogs who made every day a little louder, a little messier, and a whole lot more loving. In 2021, we took another big step, buying our first home together. It wasn’t just a house; it was the foundation of our future, filled with laughter, dog hair, and dreams yet to come.  Through the years, we've traveled together, making memories in Nashville, Las Vegas, Michigan, and Oregon. Each place left its mark on us, but Oregon was something special. We loved it so much that we decided to get a family tattoo there—a permanent reminder of the love, adventure, and commitment we share.  Through every challenge, every adventure, and every quiet moment in between, one thing has never changed—we love each other completely. Tinder may have brought us together, but love, trust, and a little bit of fate have kept us going ever since.
