Story
We met 6 years ago while at a Pride event in NYC on June 26th (also know as Equality Day). We knew we had something special and on July 16th we decided to become boyfriends. We knew back then that despite living in different cities there was something about our relationship that was worth fighting for.
Over these past 6 years we have stood by each other's side. We helped each other to become stronger individuals. Together we have faced our greatest fears, loss, and obstacles. Whenever we got anxious or scared we would remind each other of what was truly important. We would remind each other to stay in the present moment and refocus on our many sources of love and joy in our lives.
On June 26, 2022, with the extensive help of all of our family and friends we got engaged! On July 16, 2022 we celebrated our love in front of childhood friends and family in Michigan. On October 8th, 2022 we had a small ceremony at Belvedere Castle in Central Park and signed the legal documents for our marriage in front of our friends and family!
Now we are excited to have our loved ones from around the world help us celebrate our special day in Gran Canaria on October 8th, 2023!
