Our Wedding

Jahvin and I believed we met at band camp in 2017, though our story began long before that—without either of us realizing it. Back in 2011, I hosted a skating party at the Plaza Roller Rink for my birthday. It was a special celebration with a twist: guests brought canned goods to donate to a local food pantry in exchange for free skating. What I didn’t know at the time was that Jahvin was there too. As fate would have it, our parents—my mom, Denise, and Jahvin’s dad, Kevin—went to high school together. At the time of the party, Jahvin and his dad lived just down the street from the rink, and my mom invited them to join! Years later, in 2021, after reconnecting at a bowling alley, we were sharing childhood photos on our third date when everything clicked. As I flipped through my pictures, I spotted a familiar face—one I couldn’t quite place. But on the very next page, there it was: a photo of Jahvin and his dad at *my* 9th birthday party. That moment felt like the stars aligned. I didn’t say anything right away (didn’t want to scare him off, though I later found out that Jahvin felt the same), in my heart, I knew—this was the person I was meant to spend forever with. And now, here we are. Full circle, and finally together.
