Somehow, love was always right across the street. From the time we were little, our lives were quietly intertwined - our families' lake houses sitting right across from each other. We had always noticed each other, but always too shy to say anything. We both had crushes on the other, even if we didn't know it then. Years passed. Seasons changed. But the lake remained, and so did something between us. One summer, something shifted. Our conversations grew longer, our laughs a little louder, and the space between "just across the street" started to feel like home. What began as a quiet crush has turned into the most beautiful love story - one that was always waiting for its time. Now, we are getting married, surrounded by so much love and support, and the people who've been a part of this story all along.
