The first time we met in September 2019, we were both sitting across from each other at a wedding. We were introduced to each other by a mutual friend and colleague, Sophonie. We connected on the fact that we are both from Jamaica. At the end of the night, we both walked away without exchanging contact information. A few months later, I (Vanessa) reached out to Sophie inquiring about the tall and handsome man from Spanish Town, Jamaica. With her assistance, contact information was exchanged and little did we know, our connection would blossom into something beautiful. After years of spending time together, endless moments of laughter, and strengthening commitment to one another, the ultimate proposal was made on August 26, 2023. Despite the noise from the helicopter blades and not hearing the question "Will You Marry Me?", we have said YES to tackling on this beautiful thing called life. As we move into this next season, we are excited to celebrate this moment with our close family and friends.
