Their love story begins at FIU where Anthony was a sophomore studying communications and Lulu was a freshman trying to get into her dream nursing school. They met briefly when they locked eyes at a party, it was a spark that made a lasting impression. Lulu moved to attend Boston College yet every school break she found herself spending more and more time with Anthony in Miami. One winter break they decided that distance could no longer get in the way of their love and they made it official. Skype dates, airport kisses, and many care packages later, Lulu and Anthony knew that their love was everlasting.
It was the Fourth of July in the middle of a pandemic. Anthony and Lulu had been locked up for months, not being able to explore like they love to do. But FINALLY they decided to mask up and go out. Lulu loves exploring gardens while traveling, so Anthony thought why not do it in our hometown? Anthony knowing Lulu so well, takes her to the dreamy Vizcaya Museum & Gardens where he KNEW she would want to dress up and take pictures. Franchesca, his amazing sister and incredible photographer, was in on it too! They begin taking photos in the beautiful Orchidarium, they wander through the Secret Garden, and finally make it to the Teahouse. Lulu's staring out at sea as she feels Anthony grab her by the waist. She turns around and he's on one knee asking to spend forever together. Sparks flying, they're engaged! The day ended surrounded by love and fireworks.
