Jessica and I were both in 20-year relationships prior to meeting one another. We both moved on knowing there had to be more in this life for love and happiness. We both took time post-divorce to rediscover ourselves and ask what we wanted for the next chapter of our lives. Then, it happened... Something neither of us saw coming…

Lightning in a bottle!!! We caught it on the very 1st date, and our lives have never been the same since. The way we align on our goals and ambitions, respect and core values, and willingness to express our love to one another is a dream come true.

We both have a huge love of music and enjoy live performances often. Jessica told me she loved me after the Foo Fighters concert!! She was probably still gushing over Dave Grohl when she said it, Lol. Although, I admittingly told her 1st barely 90 days after meeting her.

Travel is another passion of ours, we have made so many wonderful memories is such a short amount time… From Costa Rica, a family trip to Disney, to a Metallica concert in MX City, we are always looking for our next adventure, and it happens to be our honeymoon in Italy!

One memorable trip we took was a cruise to Honduras, Belize, and Cozumel. This was about 9 mos into our relationship. This was a significant trip for many reasons:

1) It was our 1st vacation together.

2) We found another shared interest, ART. She loves KRE8, and I’m more a Mike Goddard fan, but we truly love both.

3) Most importantly, I had a moment on our patio, as Jessica looked out at sea.. This was the moment I knew I needed to spend the rest of my life with this amazing woman.

All our friends and family see how happy we are and how we truly make each other better people. These past 2 ½ years already feel like a decade of experiences. Our love and understanding of one another’s needs will always be of the utmost importance.

As many of you already know, 2024 was a whirlwind of events for us. From integrating our lives, car wreck (My Vette… oooooh sooo traumatic! LOL) recovering from a tornado that forced us to move out for over 8 mos, death of a family member, medical issues, all while taking multiple trips to normalize the chaos. We leave 2024 behind, choosing to recognize that these trials started quickly, but we are stronger for it. Now, we look forward to 2025, our wedding day, spending it with all the people we hold most dear, and all the wonderful years to come.

If you are reading this, thank you for being a part of our lives, and we look forward to spending our special day with you.

With all our love

Daniel and Jessica.
