Our Wedding

Lucia and Christopher met on Memorial Day weekend three years ago through a mutual friend. From the moment they started talking, they felt an undeniable connection, spending the entire weekend laughing, sharing stories, and building what would become the foundation of their relationship. Over the past three years, they’ve created countless memories together, bonding over their shared passions for traveling, savoring new cuisines, cheering on their favorite teams, and keeping an active lifestyle. Their adventures have taken them across the U.S. and beyond, from the sunny beaches of San Diego and Florida to the historic charm of London, Ireland, Italy, and Paris, and even to the vibrant streets of Montreal and Quebec City. This past summer, during a family vacation in Italy, Christopher surprised Lucia with the perfect proposal. Surrounded by love, family, and breathtaking scenery, she joyfully said, “Yes, of course!” Their journey together is a testament to love, adventure, and the joy of sharing life’s moments with your best friend.
