It all started one unforgettable night when Pierre walked into a party hosted by his cousin. Shakeeta was behind the bar, doing what she does best—serving up drinks with a smile and running the show. Pierre couldn’t help but notice her—beautiful, confident, and undeniably captivating. Shakeeta, in turn, thought Pierre was handsome but, as any great bartender would, was too focused on her work to pay much attention to him. But Pierre wasn’t deterred. He saw the perfect opportunity to connect over some good ole Haitian food and, of course, some great conversation. Despite how busy she was, he stayed close, offering both his presence and his company. Before long, they were exchanging numbers and making plans to see each other again. The very next day, Pierre and Shakeeta hung out—and from that moment, something sparked. Their time together was short-lived, though, as Pierre had a flight back to New York the next morning. But distance couldn’t keep them apart for long. Over the next two years, Shakeeta and Pierre traveled often to see each other, proving that love knows no bounds. But the heart wants what it wants—and eventually, Pierre made the decision to move to Chicago to be closer to Shakeeta. The next three years were filled with love, laughter, and endless memories. They built not just a relationship, but a deep friendship, supporting each other through the highs and lows, and learning that the greatest love is one built on trust, sacrifice, and partnership. Then, on June 16, 2024, Pierre knew it was time. With all the love in his heart, he asked Shakeeta to be his forever—and she said yes. Now, as we prepare to celebrate our wedding day, we’re so excited to continue this journey together. Life is truly #BetterWithBercy, and we can’t wait to share this next chapter with all of you.
