Our beautiful journey began in October 2021 when Reginald sent Rachel a simple yet significant message on Instagram. Although Rachel typically wouldn't think much of such a message, something prompted her to respond. As the weeks unfolded, they got to know each other through heartfelt conversations over text and FaceTime, even though Rachel resided in Columbus and Reginald in Cleveland. Interestingly, they soon discovered that their story had actually begun back in 2016 in Toledo, where they both attended the same church. At the time, they were in separate relationships and didn't notice each other, or so Rachel thought. Years later, Reginald persisted in reaching out to Rachel, and finally, their paths crossed again. Several weeks into dating, Reginald shared with Rachel that he had a sign from God, indicating that she was destined to be his wife. Taking a leap of faith, Reginald moved to Columbus with his daughter Reagan, and together, they welcomed their daughter Rylan in August 2022. On November 11, 2022, surrounded by the warmth of family and friends, Reginald sealed their love with a proposal, marking the beginning of their forever. Our love story may not be conventional, but over the years, our bond has grown stronger, and we've cherished every moment. Through celebrations, challenges, and laughter, we've built a foundation of trust and respect. Our love is truly special. Now, as we step into the adventure of marriage, we want to express our deepest gratitude to each of you who have been a part of our lives. Your support and love have been invaluable, and we are thrilled to share this momentous day with you. With love, "R" Family (Reginald, Rachel, Reagan, Rylan, and our furry baby Rocco)
