We're getting married!

It all started with a match on Hinge, but our first real connection happened on a hot June afternoon in downtown Winchester. We met for our first date at Roma’s, excited but completely unprepared for the heat. The restaurant originally seated us near the pizza oven, and with the temperature already soaring into the 90s, we quickly realized—this wasn’t going to work. Laughing at our luck, we asked to be moved, but since there was a wait, we decided to take a little walk around downtown, exploring shops just to soak in some air conditioning. When we returned, the host seated us right next to our original table. At that point, we just looked at each other and said, We give up! We stayed put, ordered our food and drinks, and settled in. What followed was one of the best conversations—one that felt effortless, natural, and filled with laughter. Tim was so genuine, sweet, and funny, and I knew right away that he was different. Neither of us wanted the night to end, so after dinner, we made a spontaneous stop at the Sonic drive-thru for ice cream. As if the universe was setting the mood for something special, it started pouring rain. So, we sat in the car, eating our ice cream, talking about everything and nothing, watching the rain fall around us. It was simple, but perfect. Just a few days later, we had our second date at the movies. And once again, it turned into another long, wonderful night. We couldn’t get enough of each other’s company, and neither of us wanted the date to end. That became a theme for us—time always seemed to slip away when we were together. From that summer forward, we’ve built a love full of laughter, adventures, and late nights spent talking for hours. Now, we’re getting ready to say forever. ❤️
