In August of 2013, Cassie and Andre were introduced by their mutual high school friends (who they still consider best friends all these years later) in Tallahassee, Florida. It was a classic tale of reserved guy meets rambunctious girl, and with time they got to know each other and discovered too many coincidences to write off as chance. To their surprise, their journey had started many years prior in the same preschool where Cassie’s late Grandmother, Fe Villanueva, was the principal to Andre and his two brothers. It was as if some invisible force had been pulling them towards each other all their lives- and it was in that moment, on their college campus, that they had finally reached their destination… true love. Four years flew by, it was time to graduate and hurry home to Miami to start their lives as one. Since then they’ve; adopted a cat (Toulouse) and a dog (Pennie Lane), traveled all over the world, went snowboarding and skydiving, started their careers, explored some more, wined and dined, got engaged, welcomed their first baby, Andre Paul Jr., and after ten beautiful years are FINALLY getting married. Their story is far from over, but for now, this is where one chapter ends and a new one begins. Cheers to happily ever after, Andre & Cassie can’t wait to celebrate with you at Boda Esqueff! “So, I love you because the entire universe conspired to help me find you.” ~Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist
