Like most other modern day romances, we met online. We spent hours on Skype watching Live PD, talking, and developing our bond over Indie music. It was love at first Skype🙂 Chris jumped on a plane Christmas 2017 and traveled 3,903 miles so we could finally meet. After spending a month together, Chris went back home to The Netherlands and we continued a loooong distance relationship. Many visits to the US, and a visit to The Netherlands and South Africa later, Michelle moved to The Netherlands on a partnership visa in 2019. In February we spent a weekend under an umbrella exploring Paris, ending our trip with a visit to The Eiffel Tower. After seeing the views from the top, Chris found a quiet spot, looking up at the Tower, and proposed. Honestly a dream proposal 🥰 Since then, we've been busy exploring Europe, and seeing all that The Netherlands has to offer. 4 years since the proposal, we are beyond excited to finally get married and celebrate with all of our family and friends!!
