We met on a dating app and had our first date at the Silver Street Tavern in Waterville, Maine—instant sparks! Brian fell hard for Soliana’s wit, sass, brilliance, and kindness (and she graciously put up with his puns). Meanwhile, Soliana fell for Brian’s sweet tooth, his hilarity, and his big heart.

Then… boom! COVID hit. Suddenly, we were cooped up together, mastering the art of pandemic survival and proving that love truly conquers all (including toilet paper shortages). We moved in with our two cats, Adonis and Freya, and started planning our future. Fast forward: we bought a house and made it a home, added a puppy named Apollo to the mix (training him was a journey), and kept falling more in love.

Now, Apollo’s a dashing, well-behaved good boy (most of the time), and we’re so excited to keep growing this wild, wonderful life. We can’t wait to celebrate it all with you!
