Our Love Story

Emma and Christian's love story began in the summer of 2019, bridging the gap between Baltimore and New York City. Emma, a Baltimore native, and Christian, who had moved to the area while stationed at Fort Meade, first connected online in July 2019. Their journey started with a memorable first date in charming Annapolis, enjoying dinner and ice cream along the waterfront. Little did they know that this sweet beginning would soon face the challenge of distance. Shortly after their initial meeting, Emma's teaching career took her to the Big Apple. Despite the miles between them, their connection only grew stronger. Daily texts, calls, and FaceTime sessions became their lifeline, keeping the spark alive across state lines. Christian's thoughtfulness shone through when Emma arrived at her new NYC apartment to find beautiful flowers waiting for her, a gesture she still cherishes to this day.
