Our Love Story
In the delightful tapestry of life, our story began with chance encounters, fleeting moments that eventually led us to connect as friends on Instagram. What started with virtual likes and comments soon evolved into a profound friendship rooted in our mutual passion for business and creativity.
As our connection deepened, we realized we were more than just colleagues; we were kindred spirits, partners in love and in life. Our shared love for exploration and the arts sparked adventures that painted our journey with vibrant memories of laughter and discovery.
Rooted in our shared values and a mutual joy for hosting, we found in each other not only soulmates but also the truest of friends. On July 14, 2024, as we unite in matrimony, we celebrate the culmination of our love story—a tale woven with threads of friendship, creativity, and an unwavering devotion to one another.
We Met
Nov 12 2018
Their reconnection unfolded unexpectedly. They both attended the same church in Montgomery, AL, during Candace’s college years, but lost touch for years until Alvonta friended her on social media in 2015. Over time, he consistently showed his affection by sweetly reacting to her photos, until one memorable day on November 12, 2018, he took the bold step of sliding into her inbox. Their friendship blossomed from discussing his podcast to daily conversations. Despite the distance between them, with her now residing in Atlanta and him in his hometown, he became her steadfast protector, ensuring her safety during late-night outings or trips home from church or gatherings with friends. Eventually, their bond grew into love, fueled by trust and unwavering support.
He Proposed
Aug 25 2023
On the morning of August 25, 2023, amidst the hustle and bustle of preparing for a trip out of town, Candace found herself in the midst of a minor disagreement, fussing about something insignificant as they hurriedly got ready for work. Little did she know, in that moment of tension, Alvonta had been carefully planning to ask her to be his bride. As she turned around, caught up in the commotion, Alvonta dropped down on one knee, holding out a ring that sparkled with promises of forever. Despite the squabble that had momentarily clouded their morning, all was forgotten as Candace was swept away by the unexpected and deeply meaningful proposal. It was a moment they would cherish forever, the beginning of their journey towards a lifetime of love and commitment.
Our Life of Adventure
June 1, 2021
In 2019, Candace embraced a newfound passion for travel, while Alvonta had already explored the world during his time in the military. As their love blossomed, they shared a mutual desire to experience new adventures together. Their journey began with a magical trip to Aruba on June 1, 2021, marking the start of their adventures as a couple exploring the wonders of the world hand in hand.
