Their love story began March 23, 2018 with a direct message to Camelia from Terrence stating, “It’s 2018 we aren’t beating around the bush no more, you’re my wife.” With a peak of interest from Camelia and a few messages back and forth the two begin to talk every day. After 2 months of talking and texting long distance the two decided to meet and have their first date at Chili’s in Baytown, TX. In the summer they hung out when possible until Camelia moved to Houston and June 2018 he asked her to be his girlfriend. While the two attended separate universities, they were still inseparable. They spent most weekends exploring the city together and growing more and more in love. The lovebirds continued their long distance relationship until 2019, when Camelia was accepted into nursing school. While in college they uplifted and supported one another throughout their respective journeys. The two always talked about graduating, having careers, and building the lifestyle they wanted with one another. On December 17th, 2022 the two became engaged after 4.5 years of dating. Terrence proposed at a dinner that was surrounded by family and friends who have witnessed them grow as a couple and as individuals. With tears and a heart full of happiness she said “Yes!” In February of 2023, they discovered that there would be a lovely addition to their union. Later that year the couple would be blessed with the birth of their beautiful daughter Carsyn J. Franklin on October 10th. God has blessed this couple tremendously and this is only the beginning. We can't wait to celebrate with you at our wedding ceremony and reception in July!
