Love Stories - Robert & Vanessa

The Love Story of Robert & Vanessa

10.07.2022

About Robert & Vanessa:

Robert and I met in 2016 on Tinder! We didn't start dating until Fall of 2017 and have been inseparable since. 

Robert graduated Purdue University Northwest and accepted an offer with the Lowell Police Department in December of 2019! 6 Months later we bought our first house (fun fact we closed on Robert's Birthday, June 15th!) 6 months after that he proposed in our neighborhood gazebo just us two, on December 3rd! The ring is just perfect! We did go look at them together but I did let him have final say on color as a surprise!

Then the fun began, wedding planning was a dream! We wanted to really soak it all up as much as we could so we decided on a 2 year engagement. I graduated Purdue University Northwest May of 2021! 

We finally tied the knot October 7th, 2022! It was pure bliss, and I will forever remember every single moment! We had sold our home in June of that year and lived with his family for 3 months while our new house was being built. We got married, honeymooned in Mexico, came back for 2 weeks, and moved into our new home November 3rd, 2022! 

We've now been married for a year and a half. There is no better feeling than having someone who is always rooting for you. Marry your best friend!!
