Once upon a time, there was a man and a woman who had almost given up on love until fate brought them together online.
For Chris, it was love at first sight. From their very first date, he knew there was something extraordinary about Nova. Soon after, Nova sent a sweet video that captured his heart forever.
Over the next two months, their story unfolded like a dream: flowers, phone calls, FaceTimes, movies, and endless attentiveness. It was during this time that Nova realized the man in front of her was everything she could ever want, and so much more.
The day before Nova’s birthday, Chris asked her to be his girlfriend at Fava’s in Glen Mills, marking the beginning of a beautiful chapter. From then on, they were inseparable—celebrating holidays together, meeting each other’s families, and creating memories filled with love and joy.
On August 9, 2025, during a weekend visit to Nova’s brother in upstate New York, Chris planned a moment that would change their lives forever. At Ithaca Falls—a place dear to Nova’s family and where her parents once sat together on a special rock—Chris proposed. With the sound of rushing water behind them, and her brother capturing every detail through his lens, Chris asked Nova to be his forever.
Little did her brother know, he would also become her Man of Honor.
Now, with hearts full of love and excitement, Chris and Nova look forward to spending the rest of their lives together, writing the next chapters of their fairytale.
