Two hearts began on separate journeys and met where the mountains cradle the prairies. Neither imagined Calgary would become the backdrop that would turn chance into forever. Karssen was serving pints and laughter at Ceilis Irish pub downtown, and Matt worked just across the street. Matthew would become a regular, every lunch an excuse to see her smile. What began with a simple lunch date—where Karssen arrived fashionably late—quickly grew into something deeper and full of promise. But love isn’t always a straight path. Life pulled them apart for a time, yet their story found it's way back, as if fate refused to let go. Eight years later, after a life full of twists and turns, they found themselves in Paris. As Karssen fastened a heart-shaped lock to the Pont des Arts, Matthew knelt down and asked the question that would change everything. Her heart was already saying yes, but her first words were, “Seriously?!” Two hearts, one journey…what began as chance became forever.
