We first met in the 5th grade while in Ms. Black's math class at Buck Lake Elementary School. For years we both secretly had a crush on each other without knowing it. While we occasionally had classes together in highschool, it wasn't until our senior year of highschool that our story officially began.After graduating highschool, Connor ended up attending Princeton University in New Jersey while Maria stayed in Florida attending the University of Florida. Even with more than 900 miles between us during college, we made long distance work. In March of 2024, we got engaged in Key West, the same place where we'll say "I do." In October 2025, we celebrated 4 amazing years together - and we can't wait to start this next chapter with all of you by our side!
