While we unknowingly spent our first six years just steps apart—living in the same neighborhood and even being born in the same hospital less than 24 hours apart—our story didn’t officially begin until kindergarten. Some might call that a coincidence; we like to believe it was simply destiny taking its time. After starting our earliest adventure together in school, Tommy’s path led him to a different city. In the years that followed, his name would resurface as our schools faced one another, a familiar echo of someone just out of reach. Still, life had other plans—and better timing. Fifteen years later, fate finally reunited us through social media. What was meant to be a simple dinner quickly turned into another… and another—each one ending with the same question: “When do I get to see you again?” Families were soon introduced and instantly embraced, confirming what we already felt in our hearts. As Tommy finished college and began his career as a welder, we worked side by side, saving and dreaming—eventually buying our first home together in September 2025. Just eight short weeks after turning that house into a home, we took the next step and got engaged, ready to build a lifetime together. From that very first date, we knew we had found our forever. Hand in hand, we chose a love that would never leave us feeling alone—one we will carry through this life and into the next We welcome you in joining us to celebrate our promise to each other through God on September 26, 2026 at St. Elizabeth seton church in Bedford, nh.
