First of all, we want to say thank you for being a part of this journey that is leading up to our special day! Each of you have played such an important part of our lives and wanted to let you know just how much we appreciate and love you. We had met back in September of 2020, we all remember what that year was and the craziness that it brought. It was also a great year of bringing things together. First and foremost we give glory to God for opening the doors and guiding us in exactly how to pursue each other. It became evident early through us talking and hanging out that we both wanted God at the center of our relationship, which meant that in our communicating, our trials, tribulations we had always agreed that our next relationship was to be God centered. Through our year of dating and now moving into our engagement period we continue to learn and grow with one another, always remembering how blessed we are to be in this position because of our faithfulness to each other's growth, our intentionality in communicating, our gentleness with one another's heart, our unselfish service to each other and our unconditional love shown to one another. We again are excited for you to be a part of our special day, this is an exciting time for us and we can not wait for our wedding day to come! Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
