Charles and Maeva met in December 2021 at the Catholic Christmas Formal Ball in DC. Over the following eight months, they grew closer through outings in the capital and attending Vespers at the Dominican House of Studies in DC. Their shared love for Christ, meaningful conversation, and bubble tea brought them together as a couple. In August 2022 Charles proposed to Maeva at the chapel of St Thomas Aquinas in the Dominican House, the place where it all started. They are very much looking forward to their sacramental union in May 2023 and kindly ask for your prayers and well wishes as they prepare for Holy Matrimony!
