We like to say we found love in a hopeless place (queue up the Rihanna) because we met in a "Pandemic Pod" in September of 2020. At that time, Chanel had just relocated to San Francisco from New York, on the hunt for friends more than anything else. By some stroke of luck, Chanel's friend in the Bay Area invited her to a Presidential Debate Watch Party soon thereafter, where she bumped into Terrell for the first time. Neither were on the hunt for love, but life had other plans for us. Fast-forward to the summer of 2024, when Terrell got on one knee at Machu Picchu in Peru and asked Chanel if she would marry him. After momentarily blacking out, Chanel managed to blurt out a tearful "yes" at one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Over four amazing years, we have moved from California to Colorado, stamped our passports in several countries, and, most importantly, become each other's "ride or die." We've also made countless memories alongside our wonderful family and friends (that's you!) and we can't wait to celebrate our wedding with you all soon.
