We met at Woodleaf sleep-away camp in 2011. We instantly caught each other's eye and began talking. Despite being different in many ways, we connected on so many levels. Though camp came to a close, we continued to talk. A week later, we shared our first kiss by a gelato shop and decided to start a relationship! Despite many years of physical distance, our souls were never apart. We always found a way to stay connected, through late-night texts and video chats. In 2018, Carmen took a leap of faith and moved to Franklin, TN, and we have found such joy and stability living in the same place after all these years. We grew up together and have truly transformed and enriched each other's lives. It is through consistent love, support, and encouragement from each other that we have grown to be the best people we can be together. Our hearts are full, and we are so grateful you will be joining us on our special day! We love you!
