Our story began in high school, where we connected over a shared (nerdy) interest in Louisiana politics. Life took us in different directions after graduation—Samhita headed to D.C., while Ethan stayed closer to home in Baton Rouge—but our friendship withstood the distance. Despite all the new adventures and challenges that came with growing up, we always found our way back to each other. It wasn’t until much later, after countless, effortless conversations, that we realized our friendship had grown into something much deeper. Six years of music-filled nights, long days on the hiking trails, and quiet moments in the community garden made us realize it was time for our next chapter. We're truly grateful to have such an amazing community coming together to celebrate the start of our lifelong journey together. Your love and support mean the world to us, and we can't wait to create unforgettable memories with you!
