How We Met

Love Found Us Early & Stayed

Some love stories don’t begin with fireworks. Sometimes, they begin quietly—without grand gestures, just a single glance, a fleeting moment… and something unexplainable that lingers. They had spent years attending the same church, passing by each other without knowing the other was there. Until May 27, 2017. That day, a youth group trip to Six Flags brought them to the same place at the same time—and everything changed. They were only 15 and 16, young and unaware of what fate had in store. In the middle of the noise, the rides, and the chaos of the park, they found themselves near the same game booth. He asked her if she wanted to play. She politely said no, and walked away. A small moment, maybe even forgettable to anyone else—but not to them. Later that day, when the group was heading home, he quietly traded spots with someone else just to be in the same car as her. That decision—seemingly small—would shape the rest of their lives. From that day on, they began a journey of growing up side by side. Through joy, heartache, milestones, and quiet everyday moments, their love deepened into something unshakable. Almost eight years later, they’re still choosing each other—with even more tenderness, more strength, and more certainty than ever before. Their story didn’t start with a yes—but it has led to the most meaningful one of all. “La medida del amor es amar sin medida.”
