Our Story

Every love story is beautiful, but ours is our favourite.

We first met in 2020 through mutual friends at the Hole in the Wall Pub. It didn't take long for us to realise that, despite having lived just around the corner from one another for most of our lives, our paths had somehow never crossed until that moment.

What began as meeting up with friends and spending most of the evening talking to each other soon turned into long walks, runs, pancake dates (if you know, you know), shared adventures, and, most importantly, a love that has grown stronger with every passing day.

After almost five amazing years together, Damien proposed to Raquel in Italy in September 2025. It was a moment we will never forget, and almost exactly one year later, we are so excited to celebrate our marriage in the very same region, surrounded by all of you, as we begin the next chapter of our journey together.
