We first met in college, when life was full of late nights, big dreams, and very little sleep. At the time, we had no idea that our story wasn’t finished — it was just on pause. Years (and a lot of life) later, fate brought us back together, and this time, it stuck. What started as a first date quickly turned into a second… and then a third — and suddenly we were spending all our time together. We bonded over our shared love of travel, trying new experiences, and planning our next adventure before the current one was even over. When we’re not exploring somewhere new, you can usually find us at home cooking dinner together (or debating what to cook), eating pizza, and cuddling with our dog Charlotte, who fully believes the world revolves around her. Somewhere between passport stamps, home-cooked meals, and countless laughs, we realized we had found our best friend in each other. So, on a beautiful warm August summer day, out on our boat — one of our favorite places — he asked the question that made everything feel complete. Now we’re looking forward to a lifetime of adventures big and small: traveling the world, trying new things, cooking side by side, loving Charlotte endlessly, and building a life together. We can’t wait to celebrate the beginning of our forever with all of you.
