We're getting married!We're getting married!

They met on Tinder during a crisp fall evening, never imagining it would lead to something special. Despite the distance—him living in Las Vegas and her in Vancouver—they spent countless hours chatting, their connection deepening with each conversation. A few months later, during Valentine’s Day weekend, she planned a girls' trip to Las Vegas and decided it was the perfect opportunity to meet in person. From the moment they met, it felt like magic; they soaked up every moment together, unable to get enough of each other. As they talked, they discovered that he had grown up in a city just 45 minutes from hers, making it feel like fate had brought them together. After that unforgettable weekend, they took several trips back and forth, savoring every moment they had together. Eventually, they decided to commit to a long-distance relationship, navigating the challenges of time zones and borders for four years. When he moved to Bellingham, they continued their journey for another six years, happily crossing the border to spend time with each other. Each trip deepened their bond, making every reunion feel like a long-awaited homecoming and solidifying their love story.

Before they set sail on their vacation cruise, they enjoyed a lovely brunch by the water, soaking in the scenic views near the pier where their ship would soon depart. As they gathered for a group photo with friends, she noticed something unusual: no one was standing beside them. Confused, she turned to look at her partner, only to find him down on one knee. In that moment, time seemed to stand still. Overwhelmed with emotion, she gasped, "WHAT THE F****?" Tears of joy streamed down her face as she nodded enthusiastically, realizing this was the moment she had been waiting for. With the backdrop of the shimmering water and surrounded by their friends, she finally said yes. They were engaged! We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with you. See you in the Philippines!
