It All Started When...

Our Story

Our love story began in 2013 while studying architecture in college. At first, our schedules were entirely different and our paths never crossed. It wasn’t until Jude switched a class that fate would have us meeting. We spent a tremendous amount of time together working on group projects and getting to know one another. We became the best of friends.
We’ve been inseparable since. It was during our trip to Portugal in September 2023 that we decided to take the next step in our relationship. While exploring the breathtaking gardens of Monserrate Palace in Sintra, Jude got down on one knee and proposed! It was an incredibly emotional moment for us both; we knew our lives were about to change forever.
We’re so excited to celebrate our love and marriage in Punta Cana! We can’t wait to soak up some sun and have a blast with you all!
Love, Melissa & Jude
