Our story began on a dating app, where a chance match led us to meet up for drinks in downtown Livermore. From the moment we met, we hit it off and knew a second date was inevitable. Slowly but surely, our lives began to intertwine, and after a year of dating, we decided to take the next step and move in together. The COVID years were a blur, but they were also a time of growth and closeness for us. Living in a small home with two dogs and a 7-year-old might have been cramped, but it was an experience we wouldn't trade for anything. We made countless memories, sharing both the joys and challenges of daily life. At the end of our first year living together, Jay proposed at a special spot—the same bench where we sat during our first date. It was a beautiful moment, made even more special as we celebrated our engagement with friends who joined us at the same location. Determined to find our dream home, we pinpointed four streets we were interested in. After a year of searching, we found the perfect place and spent the latter half of 2023 renovating it to make it truly ours. Now, as we plan our wedding for October 10th, we're filled with excitement and anticipation. We can't wait to celebrate this special day with our loved ones and create more unforgettable memories together. Thank you all for being a part of our journey, and we look forward to celebrating with you soon!
