It all began on a jet ski adventure, somewhere in the middle of the ocean, on our way to Catalina Island. With the wind in our hair and the waves around us, he asked me to be his girlfriend. That quiet, beautiful moment became the beginning of everything. As our relationship grew, we found ourselves drawn to each other more with every conversation, every smile, and every small moment that felt like home. What started as a spark quickly became a steady, enduring love. One day, we challenged ourselves with a hike to the top of Yosemite Falls. The trail was long and exhausting, but we never gave up. We pushed through to meet each other at the summit. That’s when we knew… this was the kind of love that would go the distance. Then came the most magical moment of all. In the snowy stillness of North Pole, Alaska—surrounded by everything I love about Christmas—he asked me to spend forever with him. I said yes, wrapped in snowflakes, joy, and love. On August 18, 2024, we were civilly married in Catalina Island, returning to the very place where our love first began. Now, we invite you to celebrate with us as we step into the next chapter of our story—surrounded by the people we cherish most. “I have found the one whom my soul loves.” — Song of Solomon 3:4
