It started the way a lot of great love stories do... completely unintentionally, in a place that was never meant to be romantic. We met at work- just two people who happened to share a passion for working with communities and making a difference, even in small, everyday ways. Somewhere in between the busy days, we found each other. What started as easy conversation quickly turned into a genuine friendship, the kind that feels natural right from the beginning. We bonded over the things that mattered most to us: family, friends, work, travel, and all the little details in between. Somewhere in those moments, we both realized the same thing: we were meant to be in each other’s lives and decided to date in 2020. We continued building our life together, and in May 2024, we moved into our home in Danvers, a place that quickly became filled with memories, laughter, and the comfort of knowing we were exactly where we were meant to be. Then, on January 22nd, 2026, we took the next step and got engaged in The Bahamas! Looking back, there wasn’t just one moment where everything changed. It was a collection of small, meaningful moments - conversations, laughs, and choices that brought us closer together over time. From co-workers to friends to partners, through every twist and turn, we kept finding our way back to each other. And now, here we are! Getting married in the same year we got engaged, still laughing, still growing, and still choosing each other every day.
