Our story began in the most serendipitous of ways—through a mutual friend who was road-tripping across the country in 2019 and made a pit stop in Colorado. At the time, Quinn was living in Denver, an hour away from my new home in Boulder. From the moment we met on our first date, there was a spark between us, one that would grow into something truly special. That first date marked the beginning of many more, each one bringing us closer as we slowly but surely fell for each other. Though we came from different worlds, it was clear that opposites had a way of attracting. We may not have had much in common at first glance, but our love for each other deepened with each moment spent together. We shared a genuine joy in each other’s company and a shared vision for the life we wanted to build. Before long, I convinced Quinn to move to my beloved Boulder, where I had settled into a slower pace of life surrounded by the beauty of the mountains. Quinn was quickly swept up into the magic of the place, and together, we built a life full of love and adventure with close friends by our side every step of the way. After three years together, Quinn whisked me away on a surprise trip to my favorite mountain town, Crested Butte, where, at the top of a stunning hike, he surprised me with a proposal that took my breath away. We both knew without a doubt that we wanted to spend the rest of our lives together, creating a lifetime of memories. Our little family grew with the addition of our sweet and sassy cat, Stella, who’s become a cherished part of our world, filling our home with love, joy, and a little (actually, a lot) of mischief. And now, we are here—planning our dream wedding, surrounded by the people who mean the most to us, in the place we both call home. Our hearts are full, and we can’t wait to celebrate this next chapter with all of you.
