Our story began in January 2023 on a Norwegian cruise from Miami to the Bahamas. On the very first night, we spotted each other at the club, but neither of us made a move. After some encouragement from my mom (and a few failed attempts to work up the courage), I finally decided to walk up and introduce myself. Justin smiled and said, “If you would’ve given me three more minutes, I was going to come up to you.” That conversation changed everything. Justin met my mom that same night, and from that moment on, we spent every day of the cruise together. By the time the trip came to an end, saying goodbye felt much harder than either of us expected. We both knew there was something special between us. After returning home, we decided to visit each other every two weeks to see if what we felt was real. It didn’t take long to realize it absolutely was. On May 28, 2023, Justin asked me to be his girlfriend, and together we began building a life filled with love, laughter, adventure, and countless memories. Then, on October 1, 2025, our story came full circle. While sailing on another Norwegian cruise, Justin proposed in the breathtaking beauty of Glacier Bay, Alaska—the perfect beginning to our next chapter. What started as a chance meeting on a cruise ship became the greatest adventure of our lives, and we can't wait to celebrate the journey that brought us here with all of you.
