Our Story
In our final year at University in Newcastle we both went to the same party; we could see each other and shared lots of friends but never properly met. Fast forward two years and the country goes into lock down. Video dates, dog walks and picnics are the order of the day. Then fast forward five more years from that picnic walk along the Thames and we are back this time with a ring!
