The story of Lynne and Cashmere began approximately eighteen years ago, when two awkward twelve-year-olds met on Lynne’s first day in Ridgetown. Cashmere thought Lynne was the coolest person ever and secretly hoped they’d become best friends; she even wrote about it in her diary that night. From the start, the two clicked instantly: Lynne was charmingly clumsy and could get Cashmere crying laughing in a blink of an eye. Cashmere a little socially awkward and shy, but you would never guess it when Lynne was around. Somehow those quirks made their friendship even stronger. The two would truly never stop talking. As high school rolled on, life pulled them in different directions and the two grew apart. By Grade 11, they had lost touch, and Cashmere eventually moved away for school. Fast forward to 2020; fate (and Cashmere's poor driving of a grocery cart) intervened. Cashmere, after recently moving home from her adventures out east, quite literally ran into Lynne (and an aisle food bin) at the Foodland where Lynne worked. One bold, “we should hang out” later, and the spark reignited. It was as if no time had passed; except Lynne had gotten slightly less clumsy. What started as a rekindled friendship soon became something much more. Five, almost six years, a few job changes, some surgeries, countless laughs, and one unforgettable Grand Bend trip later; Lynne had proposed on a private beach during a surprise photoshoot. Eighteen years after that very first meeting, everything has come full circle. Every twist, turn, and detour led us right back home; to each other. We’ve learned that timing truly is everything, and sometimes the universe makes us wait for the best things in life. We’re endlessly grateful for every moment that brought us here; and for the amazing people who’ve cheered us on along the way. We can’t wait to celebrate with you as we finally tie the knot and begin our forever together. 🤍
