Joe and Chloe met as many do nowadays -- on a dating app. After Chloe reached out, they ended up talking for many hours each day for multiple weeks in a row. During these early days, she even told him she knew she'd fall in love with him... admittedly a little more than bold, but she wasn't wrong. Long daily conversations quickly turned into frequent and wonderful dates. As time has passed, those conversations and dates have quickly transformed into proper traditions. Shortly after, Joe met Rose - Chloe's daughter. Joe and Rose have developed their own unique relationship which consists of sarcasm, silliness, giving each other a hard time, and a lot of laughter. At the end of 2022, Chloe and Rose moved in with Joe, and thus began their journey in coparenting and blending families. Consistent with her unwavering confidence in her judgement and their relationship, Chloe proposed first with a romantic date night. This came as a total surprise to Joe, but finally made their long awaited dream a reality. ~~~~~~~~~~ Buckle up! Perspective switch! ~~~~~~~~~~ Knowing what we've needed from our perspective partners, our relationship rapidly progressed. Despite the potential pitfalls, learning to coparent in a blended family has only strengthened our relationship and fortified our compatibility. The reality is simple: we've wanted to get married for a long time. We must have asked each other "in passing" a hundred times before any official proposal. Our timeline and milestone decisions may look alarming on paper, but 3 years on, we're still moving forward with zero regrets. With our years of co-parenting together and bringing our 3 families together in our love and support of Rose... Introducing each other as boyfriend and girlfriend no longer fits our relationship or our hearts desire. So it is with great excitement that we invite you to celebrate our little family and our love as we start this new chapter together surrounded by our closest family and friends
