I wasn’t looking for love overseas… until I was. One spontaneous night, I changed my Hinge location to London, just to see what was out there. George's profile instantly caught my attention, something about his energy and smile felt familiar in the best way. He invited me to a concert (Coco Jones at the Koko in Camden, to be exact), but I had to break the news…I wasn’t actually in London. I was in Atlanta. Still, I was honest, transparent, and gave him an easy out. To my surprise, he stayed. What started as curious messages turned into daily conversations, voice notes, deep talks, and eventually FaceTime calls that lasted for hours. Somewhere in those moments, I realized this connection was unlike anything I’d experienced before — rooted in honesty, humor, and an undeniable pull. Our first in-person meeting was magic. That airport hug? Still gives me butterflies. From there, we dove into a beautiful, long-distance whirlwind built on trust, communication, and the kind of love that just feels… right.

When I came across Bri’el’s profile, I was instantly drawn in, not just by her beauty, but her essence. I didn’t hesitate to ask her out, and although she dropped still being in Atlanta on me and graciously offered to part ways, I was intrigued. We kept talking, no pressure, just good vibes and conversation. Those “light” chats quickly deepened. I even bought conversation cards so we could explore more during our daily FaceTime calls. Feelings grew, and before I knew it, I was dressing up for a first date over a video call. Crazy! Eventually, I booked my first flight to Atlanta, it was surreal, everything aligned. Since then, our love has unfolded beautifully; celebrating birthdays in Mexico, connecting with friends and family in London and Portugal, navigating long distance, and introducing our kids during Bri’el and Audrey’s first trip to London. It's been a beautiful journey.

Now… here we are. Planning a wedding. Building a life. Choosing each other — again and again. This story has unfolded across countries, time zones, FaceTime calls, airport gates, and beach birthdays. And through it all, our love has remained honest, rooted, and real. We’re excited to begin this next chapter with the people we love most — and we’re so glad you’re part of our story.
