It all started on a seemingly ordinary day on Bumble, but little did we know, fate was at work. Will broke the ice with a simple yet thoughtful question: “Do you collect anything?” Without hesitation, I answered, “Records and sunglasses.” From that moment, our conversation never stopped. We talked every day for two weeks, and I remember feeling nervous, worried that my excitement might scare him away. Our first date was at Frankie’s, and from the very beginning, it felt like magic. Will called me his “Lucky Charm” because every game we played, we won. Afterward, we went out for sushi, and our conversation flowed effortlessly. He told me how much he loved my personality, my smile, my hair—and before I could stop myself, I blurted out, “I love you.” Can you believe it? I said it first! He just laughed, playfully reminding me of that moment every chance he gets. For the next month, we spent every weekend together, growing closer with each passing day. Then, on our way back from our first out-of-town trip, he turned to me and said something that changed everything: “I can’t spend another day without you being my girlfriend.” And just like that, on March 15, 2023, we officially became us. Since then, we've built a life together—one filled with love, laughter, and endless adventures. Will has taught me resilience, to never give up, and to always put myself first. In return, I’ve taught him patience, kindness, and the beauty of slowing down to enjoy the little moments. Through every high and every low, we have conquered it all, creating something truly beautiful together. So, on December 25, 2024, when he asked me to be his wife, I knew—without a doubt—that the love we share is real, magical, and healing. I couldn’t ask for a better partner, best friend, or soulmate to walk this incredible journey with.
