We first crossed paths during our middle and high school years, our lives intertwining through mutual social groups. At that time, we were like passing ships—exchanging the briefest eye contact, blissfully unaware of the deep connection waiting to unfold. In 2018, our paths crossed again, and our polite exchanges—quick "How you doings?"—became a sweet ritual. It felt simple and innocent, yet neither of us could have imagined how profoundly our lives were about to change. Then came the spring of 2021, a season that would transform everything. With distance between us lessened, our conversations blossomed into something beautiful and meaningful. We began making time for each other amidst our busy schedules, filling our days with laughter, adventure, and experiences that highlighted our differences yet brought us closer together. By summer, we weren’t entirely sure when we became officially official, but what we felt was undeniable—a love that had quietly grown, waiting for the perfect moment to burst forth. Together, we have faced many obstacles in our five-year romance, each challenge only strengthening our bond and deepening our understanding of one another. Now, we are filled with joy as we announce that we are getting married on July 18, 2025! We are excited to embark on this new chapter together, celebrating not just our love, but the beautiful journey that brought us to this moment.
