Our Story

A Love Story Brewed in Serendipity

Tim and Arianna met one day when she was working at her friend's coffee shop, named Belli, down the street from her house. She had had a very hard year and took this job as an opportunity to be involved in her community and meet new people. Little did she know how life changing this position would be. On a day when Tim was experiencing his own personal struggles, he rode his bike downtown to the coffee shop, seeking solace and a moment to clear his head. There was an obvious spark of intrigue between them as soon as Tim entered Belli. He strutted over to the drink cooler and asked her, "which one, celcius or vitamin water?". To which, Arianna replied, "Vitamin water, obviously! Dont want to be cracked out on a Saturday." Tim went outside to drink his vitamin water while Arianna looked around trying to find something she could bring to him as an excuse to talk to him. A few days later, they irronically met on Hinge. Their first date revealed a connection deeper than either could have imagined. Four hours of conversation felt like reuniting with an old friend, a testament to the rare and genuine bond they were discovering. Their love blossomed through simple, intimate moments—lingering conversations at Belli, weekend coffee shop explorations, and spontaneous walks in the rain. One particularly memorable journey from Perkins to Government Street, drenched but laughing, even prompted an observant Uber driver to recognize the spark between them, who looked at them and said "yall must be in love or something"...she was right. Months of creating memories culminated in a proposal as poetic as their beginning. Remarkably, they got engaged just five months and one day into dating, a testament to the depth of their connection and the certainty they felt about their relationship. Tim led Arianna on a bike ride retracing their steps, past Belli and into Memorial Park. At a spot they had previously shared, Tim got off his bike and proudly announced "Alright, this is it". Arianna, having been faked out about a million times this week, responded with "yeah right. Stand up". Once she saw the ring she knew he meant it this time and immediately was speechless. Tim and Arianna have been planning their future together ever since and are so incredibly blessed to have found one another. They have decided to keep their wedding small to really celebrate with those who have played a part in helping them become who they are. They are thrilled to be celebrating their love for one another and are so excited to see all of you there! Their love story is a beautiful reminder that sometimes, the most extraordinary connections begin in the least expected times and places.
