We met 15 years ago while working together, and there was an instant connection we both couldn’t ignore. One of the things that brought us together early on was our shared love of hockey. Even though one of us is a loyal Los Angeles Kings fan and the other proudly cheers for the Anaheim Ducks, the sport gave us something special to bond over. From talking hockey for hours to playfully teasing each other whenever one of our teams lost, the friendly rivalry quickly became one of our favorite parts of our relationship, and it still is today. Life took us in different directions over the years, and we were in and out of each other’s lives, but the chemistry never really faded. In 2016, we found our way back to each other and rekindled something that felt like it had always been there. From that moment on, we stopped fighting fate. Through all the highs and lows, we’ve grown together, supported one another, and built something real and lasting. Five years ago, our little Maltipoo, Opie, came into our lives as a tiny puppy and quickly became our whole world. He’s the ultimate mama’s boy, but nothing makes him happier than roughhousing with dad. Raising and loving our fur baby together has brought even more joy, laughter, and love into our relationship, deepening the bond we already shared. So after 10 years of choosing each other every day, we’re so excited to finally say… I do.
