Amelia & James

Together

Our story

We met on a rainy Tuesday in a crowded little bookshop, both reaching for the last copy of the same novel. Neither of us got to read it that night, because we spent the whole evening talking instead.

Six years, two cities and one very patient dog later, James asked a question on the beach where we had our first long walk, and Amelia said yes before he could finish. We cannot wait to celebrate with the people we love most.
