We bet you thought it would never happen, didn’t you? After 10 years together, Jack and I are finally engaged! It’s been a long and wonderful journey, and trust us, it was worth the wait. We met when we were just 18—two young souls navigating the world, unaware that we were about to start a friendship that would lead to so much more. ​Who would have thought that a brief stint at a call centre, full of cold calls and endless rejection, would be the start of it all? Three weeks of training, awkward phone calls, performance reviews, and plenty of laughs—that’s where it all began. A job we both dreaded became the unlikely starting point for the incredible relationship we’re so lucky to have today. ​Over the years, we’ve written some amazing chapters together. We graduated university, began our careers, faced lockdowns, and then took the leap to move in together. Shortly after, Jack found himself moving into an all-female household. Suddenly, he was the only guy in a house full of Abbey’s friends, navigating endless girl talk, late-night chats, and an infinite supply of cups of tea. But through it all, he quickly found his place. Finally, we bought an apartment in Richmond, where we've been creating a home full of memories, laughter, and love. But through it all, one thing stayed the same—we’ve always been best friends. We can't wait to continue this adventure as husband and wife!
