Amanda and Gabe met when Amanda took a last minute trip down to Pensacola, FL for the weekend with a friend in October of 2020. Gabe caught Amanda’s eye right away and they spent the next day walking on the beaches of Pensacola getting to know each other. They both later said that it felt like they had known each other for years, despite having just met. They kept in touch after that trip and after many texts, FaceTimes, and phone calls decided to make their relationship official. After 3 years of long distance, Amanda moved to Virginia to be with Gabe and they added two crazy dogs to the mix. Amanda and Gabe got engaged in the living room of their first apartment together in March 2024. And the rest is history…<3

We just couldn’t wait to get married! On July 1, 2024 we eloped in Nags Head, NC with our immediate families present. Many of the pictures you’ll see on different pages of the website are from that day. We are so incredibly grateful to be able to not only celebrate our love a second time, but to get the chance to celebrate with so many of our loved ones who live all across the country!
