Exactly nine years ago, our lives crossed paths at a shopping plaza where we both worked. From the first moment, a spark lit up between us, and we felt an instant connection. We shared shy glances during our shifts, each one making us look forward to the next. Though we didn’t have the courage to speak at first, everything changed when Gilbert approached me and initiated a conversation. That sparked our first interaction, soon after we were chatting on Instagram when he slide into my DMs (lol) As we spent time together, we enjoyed laughter, shared stories, and went on sweet little dates that deepened our bond. A month later, we made it official, and that’s when our forever truly began. With my bonus son, Gio we welcomed our precious bundle of joy, Jeremiah. Our family grew in ways I had never imagined. The joy of watching them bond was a highlight of my life. Two years later, we got engaged, marking another beautiful step in our journey together. The years flew by as we created countless memories. We supported one another through challenges and cherished the moments that made our love grow stronger. Now, as we prepare to embrace the next chapter of our lives as husband and wife, I feel a sense of gratitude. Saying “I Do” will be a celebration of our love, our family, and the journey we’ve shared. I can’t wait to continue to build our future together, filled with more love and happiness.
