We're getting married!

Our story began in the heart of Atlanta (ok, just north of the heart of Atlanta), where we first met as coworkers. Throughout years of working together we developed a professional friendship with a foundation of respect and admiration, which continued to grow over time. Chastity's career path took her to Las Vegas which put distance between us - but the universe intervened by way of our mutual friend, Stacy Harmon, who encouraged Chastity to reach out to Adam to see how he was doing. After reconnecting through text messages and phone calls, it was discovered that we shared a desire for adventure which led us to San Diego for a weekend escape from the daily grind. We had a great time exploring the city, shared a lot of laughter catching up on our lives, but it was a hike planned by Chastity that truly ignited a spark between us. Returning from that trip, we knew our connection held something far more profound than friendship. Our long-distance love story began. Over the past five years, we have embarked on a beautiful journey that has required lots of planning. Living in different time zones posed some obvious challenges. Through lots of early morning and late-night calls, miles accumulated from trips back and forth, we managed to nurture our relationship. California, Colorado, Missouri, Michigan, Ohio, Mexico, and Costa Rica became more than just random destinations on a map. Each carefully chosen location offered an opportunity to meet loved ones, a chance to integrate our families and friends into our community. Every encounter added another rich thread to our story. Perhaps you have been a part of this journey and celebrated with us on various occasions. Over time, our journey has served as a beautiful reminder that distance cannot dim a true connection. In fact, with every hurdle overcome, our love, admiration and friendship have grown and strengthened in ways we could not have ever imagined. One trip brought us back to where it all began, San Diego. The city held a deeper meaning on this visit. As we stood at the trailhead of the very path where laughter had first sparked, we reminisced on the memories we have made on our path to love and commitment. It was here, under the same sky that had witnessed the birth of our love story, that Adam reached for Chastity's hand and asked her to spend forever by his side. In that very spot, surrounded by the magic that had brought us together, Chastity's answer was a tearful, joyous "yes!" Looking ahead to the cherished memories we'll create on our wedding day, we are grateful for all of you that support us, some of whom will have journeyed far and wide to celebrate with us and witness our vows. Sharing this celebration with you means so much to us, a testament that love has the incredible power to bridge divides and bind hearts together in an unbreakable bond. We are incredibly grateful for your presence as we turn another page in the book of our journey. We are excited to embark on a new chapter, with the love and support of all of you, our cherished family and friends – our village. Love, Adam & Chastity
