It all started with a litter of puppies... and one unexpected conversation that changed everything. During our senior year of high school, Joslynn was rehoming puppies, and Marco—well, let’s just say he showed interest. (Spoiler alert: he never actually got a puppy.) Looking back, we both know it was probably just an excuse to talk to Joslynn—but that little conversation sparked something neither of us could have predicted. From that point on, we were inseparable. Whether it was school hallways or late-night texts, we quickly realized we’d found something special. Then life threw us our first big test: the Marine Corps. Just a couple months after graduation, Marco was off to training, and we were suddenly learning how to love each other from a distance—with little contact and a lot of missing each other. It wasn’t easy. But it was real. Through letters, phone calls, and tearful airport hellos and goodbyes, we knew one thing for sure: we didn’t want to face life without each other. Now, years later, we’ve grown through the distance, the milestones, and all the quiet in-between moments. We’ve laughed a lot, cried a little, and learned even more about what love really means. We’re so excited to build a future full of love, laughter, growth, and maybe even a few puppies along the way. Thank you for being part of our story. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
