We first met in New York City at a networking event—the day after Alfred’s birthday—without knowing that moment would change everything. Two weeks later, we went on our first date, but the truth is, we already had a feeling long before sitting down together that this was it for us. From that day forward, life has been filled with adventure. We’ve explored new places, shared countless laughs, and created beautiful memories at family gatherings that brought our worlds together even more. Two years later, just before my birthday, Alfred planned the sweetest surprise and proposed on the beach. It was the perfect beginning to the next chapter of our story, and we can’t wait to continue writing it together.
