Through forest and flame, our hearts found home.Through forest and flame, our hearts found home.

In an age of distant realms and glowing screens, where kingdoms were connected by pixels and laughter, two souls began to orbit each other—drawn together by fate, friendship, and the meddling of a particularly persistent bard (who shall henceforth be known as the Best Man). Though Josh hailed from the land of New Mexico and Joe from the desert stronghold of Arizona, their bond defied distance. For over a year, their conversations flowed like enchanted rivers—stories, dreams, and delight shared across the void. In time, their hearts stirred, and in the eleventh moon of 2022, their courtship was officially declared. What followed was a series of daring journeys—Josh braving the mountain passes by moonlight, arriving in Joe’s realm after long nights of travel, only to return at dawn to fulfill his duties. These visits grew ever more frequent, until, one summer day, Josh declared what destiny already knew: this was home. By autumn’s end, he had moved into the shared castle. Then, as most legends go, came a ring. Not accompanied by a grand fanfare or kneeling vow, but with Joe’s trademark simplicity: a head poking into the living room and a casual, “Hey, wanna get married?” And Josh, laughing and full of love, said yes. And now, the scroll has been opened. The banners have been raised. You, dear guest, are summoned to witness the joining of two kings, in a celebration of magic, love, and the realm they’ve built—together. With love from the Grooms of the Realm
