We’re getting married!!!

Our story began in South Africa during Leadership Track with YWAM, where a shared heart for missions brought us together. We weren’t looking for love, but somewhere between coffee dates, late night conversations, and a shared heart to spread the Gospel, love found us anyway. From long distance between Georgia and Minnesota, we’ve shared so many firsts. Attilio experienced his first real Midwest winter when his future father-in-law strapped him onto a snowmobile, while Austyn was welcomed into his big Italian family and endless homemade meals. Easy to say life together has been anything but boring. Most of our dating season unfolded in Kona, Hawaii, where we fell deeper in love with the Lord and discovered just how deeply we loved one another. We’ve learned how to laugh, adapt, and choose each other no matter the miles. On November 28th, 2025, Attilio made one of Austyn’s biggest dreams come true. While in Norway, he insisted they hike up a remote mountain in the middle of nowhere to “watch the sunset at a very specific time”, which gave Austyn just enough of a hint that she might be leaving as a fiancée. Surrounded by breathtaking scenery, quiet stillness, and God’s creation in full display, Attilio proposed in a moment full of intention and beauty, asking her to spend forever with him. Every place we’ve gone, every season we’ve lived, and every choice we’ve made, we see how God’s grace has woven our story together. Looking back, we see that it was all part of His plan, a love only He could have orchestrated 💌
