THIS IS LOVE
Our Love Story
How We Met
June 1, 2023, Rachel was traveling solo in France and visited the picturesque town of Annecy. What started as a simple business lunch turned into something much more meaningful. A few months later, in September, we met again in New York for a meeting since we both work for the same company, Yon-Ka Paris. When both our flights got canceled, we were able to spend extra time together, and a fun night out in New York. That night pushed Cedric to fly out to Los Angeles a week later for Rachel.
The Journey So Far
Since then, we have had many adventures. From exploring Nashville, Dallas, Miami, and New York, to adventuring through France, Italy, and beyond, every trip has been unforgettable. We love discovering new restaurants, wandering through cities, sharing a good bottle of wine, and cozy nights at home. Now, we're building our life together in Saint-Julien-en-Genevois with Cedric’s two beautiful daughters, Héloïse (3) and Margaux (7).
The Proposal
Cedric proposed in our home, a moment filled with so much love. The next day, he surprised Rachel with a spontaneous trip to Lake Como, Italy, to celebrate our engagement in the most romantic way possible.
Our Friends & Family
We’re so excited to start this next chapter of our lives and can’t wait to celebrate our love with all of you!
