James and Kara’s story began when mutual friends brought them together at a concert—a night that neither expected would change their lives. In the midst of the lively crowd, James' humor and silly dance moves lit up the night. Feeling an undeniable spark with each shared moment, they got food afterward and from that moment on, they never lost touch. Their connection that started as friends only deepened with time. Finally, months later, they went on their first date, snowboarding together—a fitting reflection of their journey together. They didn’t stumble on the slopes, but somewhere between the laughter and shared glances, they realized they had fallen in love. In the summer of 2024, James proposed at a scenic viewpoint where they had once dreamed about the future. And then, in true adventurous spirit, they eloped in Tulum, turning a planned getaway into a celebration of their love. A few weeks later, on November 6th, they made it official at their local courthouse, surrounded by friends, sealing their story with both spontaneity and intention. Now its time to get the immediate family together for a belated celebration in summer 2025. The weather should be great around then, a better time to travel than right now.
