Our Story

Est. 2020

Paola and Gilberto’s love story begins long before they even knew it would be written. Their families have known each other for years, always existing in the same circles, attending the same gatherings, sharing the same memories, without realizing that their own story was slowly unfolding in the background. Their true first meeting, however, was at a party. Amidst the laughter and music, they shared a spontaneous dance that would spark a connection neither could have anticipated. In that instant, their hearts synchronized, and they shared a dance that would become the first of many. From that night forward, they’ve been dancing together, not just in rhythm but in life, moving together with a shared sense of joy, adventure, and purpose. Though Paola moved away for school and Gilberto started a new job, the miles between them made their bond only deepen. Despite the distance, their love never wavered. Late-night phone calls, surprise visits, and every quiet moment apart only made them more certain that they were meant to be together. They learned that love, much like a dance, is about timing, trust, and patience -- a lot of patience. Now, they live together, surrounded by the warmth of their home and the constant chirp of their beloved bird Marley. Paola and Gilberto continue to learn and grow from each other, especially in the kitchen— experimenting with new recipes, creating their favorite meals and drinks, and filling their kitchen with laughter and the smell of something delicious. Their home is also where they love hosting parties, gathering friends and family, and celebrating the joy of connection with those they love. Their story is a testament to the power of love, patience, and the undeniable connection that can be found even in the most unexpected of moments. As they prepare for their next great adventure — marriage — they are excited to dance through life, hand in hand, forever.
