In the spring of 2016, at SUNY Brockport, Tremec and Samara crossed paths at an end‑of‑year college party. As the night wound down, the two decided to call it early. Tremec offered to walk Samara and her friend home—just a short stroll across campus. What started as simple politeness quickly blossomed into something more: mid‑walk conversations felt effortless, laughs came easily, and a spark ignited like no other. By the time they reached the front door, both knew this connection was something special. That evening marked the unofficial start of their incredible journey together. Almost a decade later, those campus sidewalks still carry the echo of that magical walk—one that led to a lifetime of shared dreams and unwavering love.

Tremec and Samara had fallen in love with Toronto’s vibrant energy—their favorite spot for weekend escapes. From sight seeing and trying new foods and activities to the buzzing nightlife, the city was their happy place. Little did Samara know, this trip would mark the beginning of a new chapter. Tremec asked her to get his keys out of the trunk of the car. Little did Samara know an ordinary errand was leading to an extraordinary moment. As Samara search diligently for the keys she heard a tremble in Tremec’s voice calling out her full name and sharing heart felt words regarding their relationship. As she turned around she found him on bended knee asking her “will you marry me?” Elated with enthusiasm she put her hand out and said “put it on me!”. And so the stepped into the next chapter of their never ending love story.
