It all started with a conversation—simple, genuine, and easy. From the very beginning, Jessica and Chris felt something special: a sense of comfort, joy, and familiarity that is hard to explain but impossible to ignore. Chris was captivated by Jessica’s radiant smile first. Then came her laugh—light and infectious—and her ability to make everyone around her feel loved and seen. Her devotion to her family and her kind, bubbly nature reminded him of everything he had ever hoped for in a partner. Jessica was immediately drawn to Chris’ sense of humor and the way he carried himself—with quiet strength and unwavering integrity. His accent made her smile, but it was his heart—his love for God, how he kept his word, his care for his family—that stayed with her. What began as late-night chats and shared playlists grew into a long-distance adventure of frequent flights and airport reunions—each journey bringing them closer and making every embrace feel more precious. As they spent time together, learning each other’s stories, values, and dreams, something lasting began to grow. A friendship deepened into love. And through every step, they have found that the best parts of life are the ones shared—with someone who sees you, believes in you, and walks beside you in faith and love. They are beyond excited to begin this next chapter—hand in hand, and heart to heart. Here’s to forever. #TheLoveByrds
