MARTINA & DUSTIN

Martina and Dustin's love story begins in the bustling metropolis of New York City. They met in 2016, on a chilly autumn evening, at the Cupping Room Café in Soho. Dustin was immediately struck by Martina's beauty, wit, and intelligence. Martina, meanwhile, was taken by Dustin's charm, sense of humor, and kind heart.

After their first meeting, Dustin and Martina quickly became good friends. They bonded over their shared love of good food, great wine, and lively conversation. They explored the city together, discovering new restaurants, museums, and hidden gems. They talked about their dreams and ambitions, fears and insecurities, and hopes for the future.

Over time, Dustin and Martina's friendship deepened into something more. They began to see each other in a new light and realized that they were meant to be together. On February 16, 2020, they made their relationship official. It was a beautiful moment filled with excitement, joy, and wonder.

As the world around them changed, Dustin and Martina's love only grew stronger. They weathered moves, new jobs, graduations, and a global pandemic together, relying on each other for support, comfort, and encouragement. They learned to cherish the little moments, like sharing a home-cooked meal, taking a long walk, or simply holding each other close.

Then, on a crisp winter morning, Dustin surprised Martina with a trip to Paris, France. It was Valentine's Day, and he had a special surprise in store. As they walked along the Seine River, Dustin got down on one knee and asked Martina to marry him. Martina was completely caught by surprise but overjoyed as she said yes. They kissed, and the world seemed to stand still for a moment as they basked in the glow of their love.

Martina and Dustin's love story is a testament to the power of friendship, the magic of unexpected connections, and the beauty of two souls meant to be together.

As they officially celebrate one year as husband and wife, they look forward to a lifetime of love and adventure -knowing that they have found something special, something rare, something truly beautiful.
