A simple story of boy meets girl… but with a twist. It all began with a sofa. Not just any sofa but her first ever big girl London purchase. In the freezing cold and pitch black of a London evening, this brave boy (armed with nothing but determination and questionable DIY skills) disassembled said sofa, lugged it up several flights of stairs, and prayed over the flat like a true gentleman. Then, like a rom-com hero, he vanished into the night — back to Manchester. From that moment on, our story unfolded across train tracks and motorways, with countless journeys between Manchester and London. We’ve shared two unforgettable birthdays, one spent cruising on a boat and cheering at an Arsenal game. There was also that one week exploring all things Scotland. Through it all, our relationship has been built on a foundation of faith, daily prayer, and seeking God together. We’ve laughed, prayed, travelled, and grown and now, we’re stepping into the next chapter: Marriage. We’re so excited to celebrate this first celebration of marriage with you and even more excited for the journey ahead. Watch this space; the destination wedding is still to come. Thank you for being part of our story.
