Our Love Story

It all began in January 2023, when fate decided to bring Audrey and Garrett together on Tinder, of all places. A swipe, a spark, and before they knew it, a message turned into something neither of them had expected. What started as a simple conversation quickly blossomed into something beautiful, something real. Their first date was set for February 5, 2023, at Audrey’s favorite spot, Leaven Brewing, a place that held so many memories for her. Neither of them could have imagined how that afternoon would change everything. They met, and what was meant to be just a casual lunch turned into something far more magical. Conversation flowed effortlessly, laughter filled the air, and time seemed to slip away. So, instead of saying goodbye, they decided to continue their adventure at Bullfrog Brewing. When the sun began to set, Audrey couldn’t help but offer to cook Garrett dinner at her apartment. The evening became even more special as she made pasta from scratch, something she loved doing, and sharing that moment with Garrett felt incredibly intimate. After dinner, they settled in and watched *The Princess Bride*, where something unexpected and wonderful happened. Audrey couldn’t resist quoting the entire movie, every line a part of her. And there Garrett was, patiently listening as he ran his fingers through her hair, making her feel more at ease and more seen than ever before. It didn’t take long before they both realized how deeply they had fallen for each other. Barely a month later, they knew they were in love. In such a short time, they had shared so many memories that made their connection undeniable. The kind of love that felt like home. The months that followed were nothing short of an adventure. Garrett, Audrey’s love, went on seven missions over the course of their first year together. Some were a week long, others stretched into months, but no matter how far apart they were, they found ways to stay close. Every time Garrett came home, it was as though time had stopped. Audrey would make food from scratch, inspired by the places Garrett had been, as if they were recreating the world together in their own little kitchen. It was the perfect way to make up for the distance and the longing. Their love was made of more than just these moments; it was found in the little things too. Countless car rides, impromptu wine tastings, visits to the dog park, and weekend trips — each day they spent together only deepened the bond they shared. Every experience was more precious than the last, and Audrey knew, without a doubt, they were writing their own story. Then, in October 2024, Garrett made the most perfect decision. He knew that this adventure with Audrey, this love, was something he wanted forever. In a beautiful moment on a beach in Jamaica, as the waves whispered against the shore, Garrett asked Audrey to be his forever. And without hesitation, Audrey said yes, knowing that with him, every adventure and every moment would be more incredible than the last. Audrey and Garrett’s love story is one of fate, adventure, laughter, and home. It’s the kind of love that makes every ordinary moment extraordinary. And as they step into this next chapter, they both know the best part is just beginning.
