We're getting married!

Sometimes, love shows up right when life needs it most. We met through mutual friends, not expecting anything more than a few laughs and good company. But from the moment we began talking, there was a sense of ease, like we’d known each other for much longer than just a few hours. Andrew’s kindness and steady presence brought a calm into Rachel’s life, and Rachel’s warmth and strength drew Andrew in from the very start. When we met, Rachel was already a devoted mother to two amazing boys. Watching Andrew step into their world so naturally—and with so much care—showed the kind of person he truly is. He didn’t just fall in love with Rachel, he embraced the whole family with open arms. A year into dating, life surprised us in the most beautiful way: we found out we were expecting our daughter, Lola. She was the perfect addition to our growing family and brought even more love (and laughter, and chaos!) into our lives. The following two years were full—of late nights, sticky fingers, big milestones, and quiet moments that bonded us even deeper. Then, on a day that seemed like any other, Andrew got down on one knee and asked Rachel to spend forever together—and of course, she said yes. Now, we’re thrilled to be celebrating this next chapter in Aruba, surrounded by the people who mean the most to us. Thank you for being part of our journey. We can’t wait to say I do in paradise.
