Our story began in an ordinary setting: at work. Over time, casual conversations and small moments of laughter became the parts of our day we most looked forward to. On December 30th, 2022, we went on our first date, and by the time the clock struck twelve, we knew we wanted to be together. We spent the evening at Peppermint Parkway, a festive holiday light show, wandering among the displays hand in hand and officially beginning our relationship. What began beneath twinkling lights has grown into a love that feels like Christmas all year long.
