Once upon a time, in a cozy neighborhood, two five-year-olds named Stephanie and Cory met for the very first time. Back then, life was all about playground adventures, sidewalk chalk, and racing bikes down the block. Little did they know that those innocent playdates would turn into something so much bigger.

They became inseparable, each other’s first best friend, walking home from school together every day and sharing endless laughter. Their bond grew as naturally as the seasons changed, bringing new memories with each passing year.

In high school, everything started to change, yet stayed the same. Between classes and homework, they still found time for each other. Junior year brought a new light to their friendship, something they’d both been secretly hoping for. Walking home side by side, they finally realized they didn’t want to imagine a life without one another.

Years flew by, and together they created a life filled with joy, challenges, and even two beautiful kids who brought them more happiness than they’d ever dreamed possible. Their home is a place of love, laughter, and the kind of connection they began building at five years old.

Today, they stand here, ready to say I do and tie the knot. After 13 years of memories, love, and companionship, it’s finally time to take the next step, promising to walk side by side for the rest of their lives.
