We’re getting married!

They say you find love when you least expect it—and Mark and Anna's journey began in the most unexpected of places, on a trolley bus in Chicago. Thanks to a mutual friend with a knack for matchmaking, the two were both nudged to strike up a conversation with each other that night. A few days later, Mark and Anna were on their first date. What began as a friendly chat soon blossomed into a lasting connection. They became each other’s best friends - sharing laughter, dreams, and a mutual understanding that they had found their person. Mark’s proposal was the stuff of fairy tales. On the beach in Positano, Italy, with the sun setting over the Mediterranean, Mark got down on one knee. With no hesitation, Anna said yes. Now, as they prepare to say "I do," Mark and Anna are excited to continue their adventure together - embracing every moment with appreciation for the people and events in their lives that brought them together.
