Our love story isnt only ours—its an evolving narrative that mirrors a collection of a Choose Your Own Adventure book, guiding us through a series of choices that have ultimately led us to commit to uniting our families. What makes our story truly beautiful is its intentionality. While fate did play a role by bringing our path together again after many years, it was our daily choices—to grow as individuals, as a couple, and as a family—that crafted this journey into our favorite love story.
Rick and I met at Dunedin High School, moving within the same social circles. Wed often see each other at school or at parties when we were younger, but as the years passed, our lives diverged, taking us on separate journeys.
When our paths finally crossed again, we knew there was something special about our connection. Rick and I started dating in 2019, though the exact date remains a topic of debate. Regardless of that date, there were countless decisions we did agree on that led us to this special day. Since then, we have been on numerous trips, exploring new destinations and creating cherished memories together with Jayde and Elliot (and occasionally Hook). Weve purchased a house, transforming it into a home filled with love, laughter, and tons of dog hair. Most importantly, we have found solace in building a life together, supporting each other through the highs and lows, and creating a bond that grows stronger with each passing day.
We knew we wanted to plan this wedding with the same intentionality that has characterized our relationship. Each decision, big or small, has been made thoughtfully, reflecting the love and commitment that has brought us to this special day.
We are so grateful to have all of you by our side to celebrate our love and commitment. Thank you for your unwavering support and for being a part of this next chapter in our love story.
