Our Story

Picture of Our Story

Rachel and Andrew had an instant connection the first time they met back on April 17, 2021. Their first date was originally supposed to be just a trip to the aquarium, but it quickly turned into an adventure that included the aquarium, food, Dave & Buster’s, live music, and a bar. What started as a simple outing became a wonderful, day-long date that concluded with what Rachel recalls as a giggling Andrew holding her hand walking her back to the car (Andrew remembers this differently) as they wrapped up the day. Andrew knew right away that he had found someone special.

Their love story progressed quickly, with Andrew persistently asking Rachel to be his girlfriend. After a few weeks, she agreed, and the rest is history! They soon discovered how much they had in common, sharing countless amazing memories while traveling around the country. Their journey eventually took them across the pond, where Andrew proposed to Rachel. Now you can join them as they start this new chapter!

The Proposal

Rachel and Andrew had planned a trip to visit London. On their second day there, they started their morning with coffee and the best pastries from a local café. Next, they took the tube to the Natural History Museum. While walking through the museum, Rachel purposely pointed out to Andrew the diamond exhibit as a joke. After the museum, they walked over to the Albert Memorial in Kensington Gardens. Rachel, like usual, insisted on taking a photo! Andrew lead them to a huge, long empty lawn where he sat down his phone on the ground to take the photo. Little did Rachel know, Andrew had started recording a video. Andrew got down on one knee and asked Rachel to marry him, and of course, she said yes! They spent the rest of the day walking around London and ended the evening with drinks at the top of the Sky Garden with the perfect view of Tower Bridge!
