We met on July 31, 2020, right in the middle of COVID. Living over an hour and a half apart made seeing each other tough, so we spent a lot of time talking online and playing video games together when we couldn’t be in the same place. What started during a strange time quickly turned into something special.

In 2022, we closed the distance for good and moved in together with our cat, Honey. On April 29, 2023, I proposed, and she said yes! Since then, our little family has continued to grow—welcoming our dog, Gojo, and later that year finding out we were expecting a baby.

From long-distance gaming sessions to building a family together, we are so excited to celebrate this next chapter with the people we love most.
