Our love story began one afternoon at a charming restaurant in Pensacola, FL. As we laughed and talked, the hours flew by in a blur of shared stories and endless smiles. Reluctant to end the night, we spontaneously decided to explore another venue, where our conversation deepened and our connection grew stronger. That night marked the start of our journey together, filled with laughter, love, and unforgettable moments.

On our second anniversary, what started as a cozy candlelit dinner at home turned into a magical moment I'll cherish forever. Despite the rain threatening our plans, Markese, always my hero, had a backup plan ready. Markese first surprised me with a homemade video from Ian, Mia, and Ace congratulating us on our engagement. Overwhelmed with love and emotion, Markese then dropped to one knee and asked me to be his forever. It was a beautiful culmination of our journey, filled with love, family, and the promise of a future together.
