How We Met

Picture this: two elementary school students, unknowingly sharing a classroom with their future spouse.

While Jamar and Ebony shared those early years, they never really mixed; he was the witty boy always armed with a quick remark, while she was the reserved girl, famously dubbed as having a "valley girl" accent. Their paths scarcely crossed, but destiny had other plans. Years went by, and in the Fall of 2017, their worlds converged in an unexpected twist. Jamar, needing photos for his photography portfolio, reached out to Ebony for a photoshoot, a simple professional endeavor. But as the camera clicked and conversation flowed, they uncovered a connection they hadn't anticipated. Before long, they were eagerly planning another meet-up, not for photos, but to explore the budding chemistry between them. And as fate would have it, the sparks weren't just fleeting; they were the beginnings of a lasting flame.

The Proposal

10.14.2022

Returning to where it all began, Jamar brought Ebony back to their first hangout spot - the very location of their initial photoshoot. He told Ebony they were recreating their first photo shoot together, a clever ruse to get her to wear something other than her favorite sweatpants. And as they were lost in the moment, capturing memories, Jamar saw his perfect chance and went down on one knee. As for Ebony's response? Well, can you guess what she said?
