Ernesto and I met in our English college class in the fall of 2016. We started as classmates, which led to being friends, and then too not long after, we began dating. We started off our relationship as young adults with no career ideas in mind, and with each of us still trying to navigate our new adult lives. As we grew individually, we also grew together. Ernesto and I both graduated with our Bachelor's Degrees and started our careers. After we had established ourselves individually, we then began to merge our lives as one. We moved in together in Spring 2021 and have lived together ever since. Ernesto and I share two dogs, Theo and Tito. We love them both very much.

Ernesto and I took the trip of our lives in Jan/Feb 2023 when we went to Hawaii. To my surprise, Ernesto proposed to me on top of a volcano. It was a very special moment for us and we dove head first into planning this wedding.

In December of 2023 to our surprise, Ernesto and I found out that we were expecting our first child. To say this was exciting to us both is an understatement. We have dreamed about becoming parents for a while, but knew that the timing had to be right, (with 7 months until the wedding, God felt like this was the right time apparently haha). Although I never imagined being 8 months pregnant at my wedding, I am excited that our soon-to-be son is going to be a part of our big day. 2024 is a huge year for us; Ernesto and I will celebrate 9 years of being together, and we will become husband and wife, and now parents. We are so lucky that every one of you has been able to be a part of our journey.
