Summer of 2015 | Gina and Chris briefly met in a school bus on its way to a multi-church youth retreat. Gina thought Chris carried frat-boy energy, while Chris thought Gina was highly energetic. After that bus ride, they wouldn't cross paths again for a while. Seven years later. January 2022 | Gina and her best friend Anna came to check out the church Chris was attending, and eventually they became members. Chris was in a season of fresh start as he had recently quit his last job. Gina was in a season of building new friendships and rooting herself in community. One late Sunday afternoon, Gina invited a group of friends over to her studio to hangout, and Chris came. This hangout quickly turned into a biweekly watch party for Netflix's K-drama, Reply 1988. Throughout the year, the group enjoyed good food, company, and many personal stories. Gina early on developed feelings for Chris, while Chris had come to realize his own feelings for Gina towards the end of the year. December 2022 | After secretly informing her best friend Anna, and nerve-rackingly announcing the news to her older brother Chris, Chris devised a plan to confess his feelings to Gina. January 2023 | On the night of the final watch party for Reply 1988, after friends had left Gina's place, Chris nervously confessed his feelings to Gina. AND GINA RECIPROCATED! After a few dates, they made things official as a couple. Over the next year and a half, Gina and Chris grew in friendship and love, with much support from family and friends. June 2024 | With a fun plan and an awesome proposal committee (comprised of Gina and Chris's closest friends), Chris proposed to Gina by a secluded lake. She said YES! A celebration with their close friends and family followed. October 2024 | With invitations now in your hands, Gina and Chris are excited and looking forward to celebrating their union with you! Thank you for being a part of their journey! See y'all soon!
