Our Wedding

Like many modern love stories, ours began with a swipe. We met on a dating app, both swiped right, and the rest… well, took a little time.Rachel knew right away.Justin, naturally, denied it.What followed was about a year of on-again, off-again conversations, laughter, and undeniable chemistry. Somewhere along the way, feelings crept in. That realization felt exciting and terrifying, so we did what any two slightly scared people would do… we ended it.But sometimes love is patient. Justin kissed a few frogs and learned a valuable lesson: Rachel was always the one.By May of 2024, everything clicked. No more hesitation. No more half-steps. We jumped in with both feet (maybe four), choosing each other fully and without fear.And now here we are, so grateful for every twist, turn, and swipe that led us to this moment.We can’t wait to celebrate the beginning of forever with you.
