It all began through mutual friends—nothing dramatic, no grand gestures, just two people destined to meet at the right time. Our first date? An unforgettable visit to the Monterey Bay Aquarium. It was the perfect backdrop to see if we could connect beyond the small talk. And we did. From the very beginning, everything felt natural. It wasn’t about trying to impress; it was about enjoying each other's company, and realizing how in sync we were. We shared the same love for music, humor, and the beauty of the little things.

What makes our relationship unique is the way we’ve shared so many “firsts” together. From attending our first sports game to traveling to new places, we've never stopped exploring together. Whether it was dancing at a concert, hopping on a plane to an unfamiliar destination, or even jumping out of a plane together for our first skydiving adventure, each experience has made us stronger and more connected.

Ten years later, we still laugh the same way we did when we first met, and we still find new things to learn about each other. Our love has only grown deeper over the years. We’ve shared so many special moments, but one that stands out is the day we got engaged. At Red Rocks Amphitheatre, watching the sunrise together, it was the perfect moment. We promised to continue this journey together forever.

Through everything, one thing has remained constant: Our love for each other and our families. It’s the foundation of everything we do, and we’re endlessly grateful to have found someone who feels like home. Every year, we fall more in love with each other, with life, and with the adventure that is yet to come.

Here’s to the next chapter in this beautiful love story.
