How We Met: Our love story started in the spring of 2022 with a swipe on Hinge. What began as casual messages quickly turned into late-night FaceTime calls that lasted for hours. We talked about everything, laughed a lot, and built a connection that felt easy and real from the very beginning. After a few weeks, we finally met in person in May 2022. That day felt special in a quiet, undeniable way. Bryan asked me to be his girlfriend, and neither of us hesitated. It was one of those moments where when you know, you know, and from then on, we were inseparable. Just a month later, we took our first trip together, a cozy cabin getaway in the mountains. While we may have learned that we’re definitely not built for the wilderness, that trip showed us something far more important: no matter where we were, being together felt like home. Every adventure after that, big or small, only made our bond stronger. On September 22, 2024, Bryan’s birthday and a day we’ll cherish forever, we were on a cruise when he got down on one knee and asked me to spend forever with him. With a full heart and no doubt at all, I said yes. As we prepare for a lifetime together, we are deeply thankful for God’s timing, guidance, and grace in bringing us together. From a single swipe to a forever kind of love, our story is just getting started, and we couldn’t be more grateful.
