weclome to our love story

Our love story began with Abbi's roommate, Caroline, who thought they would be perfect for each other, and she was right. After a sweet Instagram dm and a week of texting, Abbi was extremely excited to meet this handsome guy, Nourie. There was a first date at the movies, lots of banter, and a late-night milkshake run. Shortly after they fell into a rhythm without even trying, both knowing there was something incredibly special between them. She knew early on that they belonged together (and Abbi is almost always right), sensing this inexplicable balance that they provided for each other. She brings care and intention to everything she does. She loves to share her passions, filling their days with vintage finds, random history facts, and adventure. She is particular in the way that makes life feel thoughtful and full. She teaches, she creates, she makes things feel like home. He is wonderfully nerdy (with more DCU knowledge than Abbi thought possible) and exceptionally hardworking. He is kind in the steady, unspoken ways that matter. He makes her laugh in a way that lingers, coming up with funny, ridiculous jokes that catch her off guard and make the world feel lighter. He shows up for her, again and again. To museums, on long walks, and at work events, always offering a helping hand and a listening ear. He softens with her, at ease in her presence, and always leans into her head scratches. She relies on his strength, his calm, and his gentleness everyday. His Lois, her Superman. These days, it looks like the quiet, everyday things. Making dinner together (grilled ham & cheese with tomato soup is a fan favorite). Going to the gym. Supporting weekly work wins. Talking through dreams and plans for the future. They gravitate toward each other without thinking, with the same love, tenderness, and excitement as the very beginning. Some people spend a lifetime searching for a love like this. We found it early and never questioned it. And now, we get to celebrate it with you. — Abbi & Nourie
