Come on an adventure with us as we say I do

Modern love often begins with a swipe, and for Jacqui and John, that swipe was the start of something truly special. They met on Hinge, trading clever banter for a week before deciding to meet in person. Their first date was set for a Wednesday in the West Village, just three days before the city locked down in March 2020. John had picked an oyster bar, a spot that, by pure coincidence, they both loved. Jacqui, true to form, was running late, so John texted to ask what she’d like to drink. Her response? “Surprise me.” When she arrived, she was greeted with her favorite—a spicy margarita—and a man who was quickly winning her over. Jacqui apologized for being late but confidently promised she’d be worth it—and she delivered. Over oysters and margaritas, they laughed, swapped stories of travel and life, and found a spark neither had felt in a long time. It was a first date neither wanted to end, but as fate would have it, the pandemic struck days later, putting their budding romance on pause. Instead of letting the distance cool things off, John called Jacqui every night for two weeks, turning those late-night chats into a foundation of something real. It felt timeless, like something out of a romance novel, and when they finally reunited, it was as if no time had passed at all. Since that first Wednesday, Jacqui and John have traveled the world together, shared countless adventures, and built a beautiful life full of laughter, love, and plenty of cheeky surprises. Now, four years later, Jacqui adores John’s caring heart, his unstoppable can-do attitude, and his mischievous humor. John loves Jacqui’s adventurous spirit, quick wit, and the way she keeps him on his toes with her whirlwind ideas. Together, they’re the perfect match—and they’re so excited to celebrate this next chapter with all of you!
