Ciao! We're Getting Married!

Our journey to love began in a modern, yet serendipitous way, all thanks to a single photo and the matchmaking skills of Aryanna's sister, Tanin. One day, Tanin posted a picture that included Aryanna, and Raul, intrigued by the woman in the photo, reached out to ask who she was. Seeing a potential spark, Tanin played cupid and shared Aryanna's number with Raul. That act of fate led us to connect and set the stage for our first date in West Palm Beach.

Our first encounter began at Kabuki, where we shared sushi, laughter, and the excitement of getting to know one another. After dinner, we strolled to Bradley's, and it was there, under the stars and swaying in a hammock, that we delved into deep conversations about the future. Something in the air that night made it clear; we had stumbled upon something truly special.

Eager to continue what had started, Raul invited Aryanna to the beach the very next evening. There, with the sand between our toes and the sound of waves in the background, we spent hours talking. Our dreams, ambitions, and hopes for a family were laid bare, intertwining our lives further. It was a moment of profound connection, learning about each other's pasts and envisioning a shared future.

Our tale took an adventurous turn when Aryanna had to leave for a work trip to NYC. In a grand gesture of romance, Raul flew out to surprise her, turning what was just an ordinary Friday night into the magical third date of a lifetime. Front row seats at 'Wicked' on Broadway wasn't just a date; it was a declaration of our growing feelings for one another. We were inseparable once we went back to home to Florida.

On March 3, 2024, our love story reached a beautiful new chapter when Raul proposed in Laguna Beach, California. Against the backdrop of the Pacific Ocean, Raul asked Aryanna to spend the rest of her life with him, and she said yes. It was the perfect culmination of our journey so far, a moment that felt like something out of a dream.

That was the beginning of our journey together, a story filled with love, surprises, and shared dreams. We've navigated life's ups and downs, always together, always stronger. As we prepare to step into this new chapter of our lives, we are so excited to celebrate our love in the intimate and beautiful setting of the Amalfi Coast, Italy. The thought of exchanging vows surrounded by breathtaking views, with those we hold dear, fills our hearts with joy. We are beyond grateful to each and every one of you for being part of our love story, and we can't wait to share this special moment with all of you. Your support, love, and presence mean the world to us. Here's to many more chapters in the incredible story of us.
