It all began in April 2022 when we met for our first date at Smokey Rose, a cozy restaurant right across the street from what will soon be our wedding venue. That evening, over great food and even better conversation, we both felt it—it was love at first sight. From that moment, we knew we had found something truly special. What’s funny is that we had been living parallel lives without even realizing it. We both grew up in Boerne, probably crossing paths at countless places, but we never formally met. It wasn’t until we were adults, both living in Dallas, that fate finally brought us together. Timing really is everything! Over the months that followed, our bond grew stronger as we shared laughter, deep conversations, and so many unforgettable moments. Smokey Rose has become a special place for us, a reminder of where our journey began, and it feels so meaningful to say “I do” just steps away from where it all started. Now, as best friends and partners, we can’t wait to start this next chapter together. Our wedding day is more than a celebration of our love—it’s a reflection of the Lord's goodness that brought us to this incredible moment. We’re so excited to share it with all of you!
