Our story started in 2017 when we met through mutual friends, but it wasn’t until after a Memorial Day party in 2018 that Justin took the first step, and we began spending more time together. That was when things started to fall into place. We then spent time getting to know one another, discovering shared interests, and having countless conversations that went late into the night. Every moment felt easy, as if we’d known each other for years. It didn’t take long for us to realize something special was growing between us.

Our first vacation together came in 2019, and it was an unforgettable trip. It marked the beginning of many adventures we would take together. From then on, we continued to explore the world and make lasting memories—just the two of us, discovering new places and sharing new experiences.

By the summer of 2020, we were ready to take the next step. We moved in together, turning our place into a home filled with hard work, love, laughter, and late nights. In 2021, we welcomed Remi, our beloved dog, into our lives, and he quickly became a huge part of our world. He’s been with us through every adventure and all the quiet moments in between.

Over the past 7 years, we’ve celebrated each other’s achievements, supported one another through challenges, and found joy in the little things: camping, hiking, biking, paddleboarding, swimming, trying new restaurants and bars, attending farmers markets and fairs, and spending time with our families.

In May 2024, under the northern lights and with Remi by our side, Justin proposed, and we couldn’t be more excited for the future. We’re ready to continue this journey together, inspired by the love and commitment our parents and grandparents have shown us. We look forward to building our own version of that lasting love and creating many happy years together!
