Addison and Ashley have known each other for about 10 years, their paths first crossing at New Heart Church, much like the paths of Jedi converging at the Temple. Over the years, they maintained a friendship through occasional interactions during Friday night Bible studies and Sunday brunches at Addison’s parents' house. Their story truly began in 2020, when they ran into each other one fateful night at the Pearl, an encounter as destined as Anakin and Padme’s.

In the months that followed, they deepened their connection through conversations and time spent with friends. Addison, with the fervor of a Jedi Knight, persuaded Ashley to join him in Taekwondo. Though initially hesitant, Ashley grew to enjoy and appreciate it, just as Addison had promised.

Their love blossomed like twin suns over Tatooine, and they officially became a couple in 2021. Conversations about marriage, children, and a shared future soon filled their days, and their excitement for what lay ahead was palpable. Through life's challenges, they sharpened each other, maturing as individuals and strengthening their bond as a couple, much like the forging of a lightsaber.

In April 2024, Addison recreated their first date and proposed to Ashley, promising to spend the rest of their lives together. As they embark on this new adventure, may the Force be with them, guiding their journey, blessed by God and inspired by the stars. This is the way.
