On St. Patrick’s Day 2019, a casual night out in Keyport turned into something special with a little luck of the Irish. It sparked a connection neither of us expected, setting us on an adventure that’s lasted ever since. As time went on, our weekends were filled with boat trips, beach days, camping, and endless adventures. We watched sunrises by the water, spent afternoons walking along the beach, and enjoyed evenings around campfires under the stars. There were new places to see, ball games to attend, and road trips that made every weekend feel special. In 2022, we closed on a house, marking the beginning of our forever. It was a dream we’d both shared, and now it was coming true. The house was a fixer-upper that needed plenty of work, but Will poured his heart into making it our home. Every project brought us closer, challenging us to work as a team. It wasn’t just about the renovation—it was about building a future together, one project at a time. On September 14th, 2024, we experienced one of the most unforgettable days. We started the morning soaking in the sun and enjoying the peaceful sound of the waves. Afterward, we headed to the boardwalk, enjoying the swings and all our other favorite rides. As the afternoon turned into evening, we packed up the truck and headed to the lighthouse on Island Beach. Justine thought it was just another night camping, but Will had a picture perfect moment planned. As the sun set over the water, he got down on one knee and asked Justine to spend forever with him. The proposal was simple, heartfelt, and a total surprise. It was a moment neither of us will ever forget. As we prepare for our special day in October, we’re filled with gratitude for every memory we’ve made and excitement for the future we’ll create together. There’s so much ahead—more adventures, more laughter, and more love. Our journey is just beginning, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds as we walk through life as husband and wife.
