Mae and Cesar met the modern way—by swiping right on a dating app in 2019. What began as a simple swipe quickly turned into something neither of them expected. Mae first caught Cesar’s attention while scrolling through the app, but she truly captured his heart during a two-hour phone call that flowed so naturally it felt like they had known each other forever. Their first date took place on the Fourth of July. Mae had just finished her morning shift, while Cesar spent part of the day driving around the city searching for a restaurant that was actually open on the holiday—determined to make their first date happen. When they finally met, the nerves were real—especially for Mae—but the evening unfolded effortlessly. Over dinner and a walk around the city, they talked, laughed, and slowly began discovering the connection that would soon grow into something much deeper. At one point that night, Cesar nervously gathered the courage to put his arm around Mae—an awkward but sweet gesture that no one had ever done before. Instead of feeling unsure, Mae found it incredibly endearing. In that simple moment, something quietly shifted, and the rest, as they say, is history. Through consistency, open communication, and a deep commitment to each other, their relationship continued to grow stronger. What began as a chance swipe became a beautiful love story—one they truly believe was guided by God all along. Along the way, their love grew into something even more meaningful. Now, with grateful hearts and surrounded by the people they love most, Mae and Cesar are overjoyed to begin the next chapter of their story—promising forever to one another.
