How it all began

Our Love Story

June 2019

First Meeting

We locked eyes at a friend's barbecue. Emily dropped her lemonade, and James was there with a napkin before she could even blink. It was awkward, it was perfect, it was the beginning of everything.

The First Date

A rainy evening at a little Italian place downtown. We talked for hours, forgot to order dessert, and walked home under a shared umbrella. Some things were just meant to be.

December 2020

Moving In Together

After a year of dating during strange times, we decided to take the leap. Our first apartment was tiny, the kitchen was a closet, but it was our little paradise.

The Proposal

On a frosty Valentine's morning, James led Emily to the bench where they'd shared their first kiss. Down on one knee, with ring in hand and tears in eyes โ€” she said yes before he even finished the question!
