We are overjoyed to invite you to celebrate the most beautiful day of our lives, our wedding day, on July 27, 2024. Our hearts are filled with love and gratitude as we reflect on our extraordinary journey that led us to this moment, and we cannot wait to share it with each and every one of you.

Our story begins in 2018, when our paths crossed thanks to a mutual friend. Little did we know that this simple introduction would be the catalyst for a love story that would shape our lives in unimaginable ways. At first, our connection was marked by small messages and casual conversations. But as time went on, our hearts yearned to meet in person, to truly explore the depths of the bond that was forming between us.

Finally, in March of 2020, just before the world as we knew it was turned upside down by the pandemic, we went on our first date. It was an extraordinary moment as we navigated the uncertain landscape of dating during the pandemic. Steve, the ever-romantic, invited Candice to his home and prepared a mesmerizing dinner. From the first moment we sat across from each other, it was abundantly clear that something magical was happening. The sparks flew, and our hearts began to intertwine in a profound way.

Steve was captivated by Candices positive, outgoing, and bubbly personality. Her infectious laughter and her ability to bring sunshine to any room instantly stole his heart. He adored her goofiness and her sense of humor, as it mirrored his own. But what truly touched his soul was her ability to push him beyond his comfort zone, to challenge him to embrace new experiences and adventures. Candices passion for travel and her love for adventure ignited a fire within Steve, and together, they built a bond fueled by shared dreams and wanderlust.

On the other hand, Candice was enamored by Steves kindness and deep capacity for love. From the very beginning, she felt the warmth of his heart radiate through every interaction. His patience, integrity, and unwavering kindness set him apart from anyone she had ever known. Steves dedication to being a true gentleman, his consistent display of respect and care, and his innate goodness solidified her admiration and love for him. With every passing day, Candice falls more deeply in love, continually discovering new layers to Steves character that leave her awe-struck.

Over the last three years, as our love blossomed, we also cultivated an unshakeable bond of friendship. Through the highs and lows, we have become each others best friends, cheerleaders, and unwavering support. The magnitude of our connection goes beyond the romantic; it is deeply rooted in mutual respect, trust, and shared values. Together, we have faced challenges head-on, laughed until our stomachs ached, and found solace in the unwavering strength of each others love.

One of our greatest blessings is our shared faith and our love for God. Prayer has become an integral part of our lives, anchoring us during difficult times and amplifying our joys. Our individual relationships with God have played vital roles in shaping who we are and who we aspire to be as a couple. Our love for God deepens our love for one another, reminding us that our love story is one of divine intervention and guidance.

As we stand on the precipice of forever, we are filled with excitement and anticipation of the lifetime we will build together. We are ready to embark on this extraordinary journey of love, trust, and shared dreams. Our hearts overflow with joy as we imagine the memories we will create.
