We’ve been together about 7 years, sharing lots of love and guinea pigs. After making it through the pandemic shutdowns together, and even more in love than we went into them, we decided to get married. We realized a month ago that the reasons we had been waiting didn’t feel important anymore, and we just wanted to be married already. We will be celebrating with immediate family in Albuquerque in September and hope to do something larger (and local) in the future.
