Timothy Ecelbarger - Builder & Master Craftsman...

Meets Vibe Creator and Interior Designer - Amanda Cram, in Topanga, California.

Amanda was thrilled to have a skilled carpenter and knowledgeable builder living next door. That's right...these two were neighbors first. Tim's level of detail and work ethic led Amanda to hire Tim on many projects.

Amanda designed the spaces and Tim brought the vision to reality. They became good friends, nerding out about design, and working together. It was not until both their previous relationships ended months apart, that allowed for their work friendship to shift - while working on the Heller's home renovation.

Their paths aligned and so did their hearts.

This was no ordinary love - This was a true deep soul connection, one that they knew existed but had never felt until now.

They took time apart to spend time with family and heal from their past relationships. They talked over the phone, Tim visited Amanda in Nashville and then Amanda visited Tim in Orlando. After these few months apart.

They decided to just go for it. Amanda arrived in Orlando to stay.

Amanda found a job at a local design firm in Orlando and Tim continued with his work as a freelance carpenter.

Tim showed Amanda all his favorite things about Orlando.

They rented a small home in Oviedo, FL and start creating a life and love of their dreams.

They went to Hulaween - their first festival together.

They adopted their first fur baby - a Pomeranian they named Cookie.

They bought their first home together.

And shortly after adopted Coco - their second fur baby.

Tim surprised Amanda with a weekend getaway to Miami where he proposed.

Amanda left the design firm and they started their own design & build company - Astraea Design & Build LLC.

They took their first vacation together - a joint birthday trip to Northern California.

And planned a wedding of their dreams. "We can't wait to celebrate this love with our closest family and friends...each and every one of YOU!"
