It all began on a warm summer night in 2010, around a crackling bonfire. That’s when Martin walked right up to Monique, and that night began a love story that's now been 15 incredible years in the making.

​

From the thrill of Kings games and late-night concerts where we sang until our voices disappeared, to the unforgettable magic of Disneyland, the spontaneous Vegas adventures and cozy mountain getaways to Mammoth Lakes we’ve collected a lifetime of memories. Together, we've built a home filled with love, laughter, music and most importantly shared it with our beloved furry family: Layla, Kylie, and Malachi. They've brought endless joy to our lives, teaching us the true meaning of unconditional love while enjoying a wonderfully spoiled life along the way.

​

But our story was shaped by more than just the happy moments. When Monique needed a kidney transplant, we walked through that journey hand in hand, never losing sight of each other. It reminded us that true love is found not only in celebration, but in resilience. In carrying each other through life's hardest days and finding strength together when it's needed most. Through it all, we grew stronger, closer, and more grateful for one another than we ever thought possible.

​

Fifteen years later, we still see the same spark in each other that first ignited around that bonfire in 2010. Every road trip, every celebration, and every challenge has led us to this moment, to a new chapter where we get to celebrate not only our love, but also the family and friends who have been part of our journey.

​

Ours isn't just a story about two people who fell in love. It's a story of laughter and loyalty, shared dreams and unwavering support. And as we stand together today, we're grateful for every moment that brought us here and excited for all the chapters still to come!
