We met on the sailing team at Massachusetts Maritime Academy while studying Marine Engineering and began dating in 2019. Since then, we’ve been inseparable—though often separated—as our careers took us to sea. Along the way, we learned how to grow together even when apart, building a love rooted in trust, patience, extra long phone calls, and shared dreams. Recently, we bought our first home together in Branford and immediately dove headfirst into renovations. Between a few fixer-upper projects, more trips to Home Depot than we can count, and the surprisingly tedious task of wallpaper removal, we’re excited to turn this house into a home. Right after closing, Kyle proposed—turning the start of our home into the start of our forever. We can’t wait to see what comes next and are so grateful to celebrate this next chapter with the people we love most.
