It was through a modern online introduction that Isabelle's and Martin's paths first crossed. They agreed to go to brunch at the most popular spot in Amherst. Fate and dozens of other hungry college students gifted them with a long wait, granting them an hour of unbroken conversation. In that time, the ease with which they spoke and laughed made it seem as though they were reconnecting with a long time friend. From that moment, their days became intertwined. Sunrises and breakfasts were shared before classes, afternoons passed with competitive games, and evenings stretched into nights filled with lively company or quiet exchanges. Their companionship, unforced and natural, quickly grew into something neither could envision being without. Not long after, they ventured on a journey across the country, a bold endeavor that deepened their bond with every mile. Amidst the grandeur of unfamiliar landscapes, the thought about eloping in Vegas arose, only to be set aside in favor of adopting a dog upon their return. This trip marked the beginning of a shared life, one shaped by adventure, humor, and steadfast devotion. In time, they built a home and a life together, eventually eloping with just their immediate families present, a quiet ceremony that spoke volumes of their love and unwavering commitment. Now, with their young son joining their story, they invite those they hold dearest to witness and celebrate the love that has guided them to this day.
