We met on a warm Autumn evening as we ran around the corner of the art gallery and bumped into each other. Of course in the real world, the 15th October 2020 when we first met was during lockdown, so digital assistance was involved. That did not stop it being love at first sight!
For those of you who know, when we met, we instantly had a connection and knew that we would one day get married and live in the countryside! We would have multiple cats, possibly a dog and an Alpaca - maybe human babies someday too. We went on 4 dates in the first week when we met, nothing has changed to this day.
We met a bit later in life but it has made us realise we met at the right time and we are exactly who we need each other to be. Appreciating how lucky we are to have met each other, this is where our journey started. As they say, a picture tells a thousand words, see our journey continue in pictures below… We will continue on adding to our story until our wedding day... <3
