Our Story

From building ventures to building a life together—our journey has been filled with deep conversations (maybe not as much as the shallow and petty ones), big dreams, and large disagreements that always turns into belly laughs, then key milestones.

We met and decided that we’re pretty alright together.

It is a celebration with the people who mean the most to us.
