Like many modern love stories, ours began with a swipe. We matched on Bumble, where, as fate would have it, the girl makes the first move. While scrolling through Max’s profile, one detail stood out immediately: he was a drummer. So naturally, my opening line had to be memorable. I messaged him something along the lines of, “Most girls go for the guitar player, but I’ve always been more of a drummer girl.” That did it—he was hooked. Our first date was anything but ordinary. We met at one of Max’s shows, grabbed burritos afterward, and then headed to the cliffs in Ocean Beach. What started as a casual night turned into hours of talking, laughing, and getting to know each other under the stars. Neither of us wanted the night to end. From that moment on, we haven’t stopped talking, and we haven’t looked back. One swipe turned into countless conversations, unforgettable memories, and the love story we’re so excited to celebrate with you today.
