Our Story

Our story began in a little city called Victoria, Tx. It started in the most unexpected way working side by side at a restaurant while we were both finishing school. What started as shared shifts and easy conversations soon grew into a love that carried us through every season. We spent three beautiful years together in Victoria, followed by three years of long distance that tested us, shaped us, and proved that distance could never lessen what we felt. When the time was right, we found our way back to each other and made a home together in Richmond. Nearly nine years after our first meeting, we’re choosing each other again, forever, and cannot wait to celebrate our love with those who mean the most to us.

Schedule

As we celebrate nearly nine years of love, we are so excited to honor our union through two meaningful celebrations. Our Traditional Wedding will take place first, honoring culture, family, and tradition. Our White Wedding will follow, as we gather with loved ones to celebrate our love story and the life we are building together. Each day holds special meaning to us, and we cannot wait to share these moments with the people who have supported and loved us throughout our journey.
