How We Met

We Found Love in Miami

Our story began in 2018 at Florida International University. It was Judy’s third day of the semester and Steven’s very first when fate stepped in. We lived in the same apartment building and officially met at the pool — a simple moment that turned out to be the start of something special. From that day on, we spent almost every day together. What started so naturally as a friendship quickly turned into an unbreakable bond. We became best friends first, laughing, studying, and navigating college life side by side. About a month later, we went on our first official date to The Cheesecake Factory — and the rest slowly fell into place. After Steven’s 21st birthday, he asked Judy to be his girlfriend, and been together ever since. Who knew a college pool day and a slice of cheesecake would lead us here? Now we’re ready for our next chapter — forever. #WeFoundLoveinMiami
