When we think of our story, we remember all of the times our paths have crossed, leading us to this incredible moment. Our story began in November 2020 when we first met for a brief moment. Life took us in different directions, but fate had other plans. Fast forward to a spontaneous trip to Bali in May 2023, where we decided to give the friendship we had built a new title - something deeper, something more. Despite only knowing each other for 3 years on a surface level, we were both intrigued and impressed by what this new relationship could become. There was an undeniable spark, and we knew we had to see where it would lead. For months we talked, laughed, and discovered more about each other. Eddie's adventurous spirit quickly became clear when he extended an impromptu invite to Italy-an exhilarating, spontaneous decision that left Clarissa completely bewildered. But in that moment, as we wandered through the streets of Rome and watched the sunset over the Amalfi Coast, we knew no matter how many miles separated us or how long we had to be apart, we wanted to be together for the rest of our lives. In less than a year, Clarissa relocated to Texas, and we moved in together. That little apartment became the foundation of something bigger than we imagined. Love filled every corner, and soon after we welcomed Benito, our sweet pup, making our family complete. Fast forward to today, and we are immeasureably grateful. We have found in each other a love that is unconditional-one that embraces the highs and the lows, the adventure and the quiet moments. We are partners, perfectly fitting puzzle pieces, always making sure the other feels loved, seen, and cherished. In November 2024, Eddie popped the question to an utterly shocked Clarissa in front of Kaneiji Temple, Japan. It was a moment straight out of dream, sealing our promise to a lifetime together. Our journey hasn't been typical-some might say it was a little out of order. But we took risks, put our faith in each other, and embraced the unknown. And through it all, our love only grew stronger. Now here we are, choosing our forever.
