Our Story
We were both young...
We're Sabrina and Zach. We started dating after going to a music festival together almost a decade ago, and got engaged after only 8 years together! I know, I know, don't rush into it, but when you know, you know.
We've gone through so many memories, evolutions, and adventures together, from our young music festival phase to our now constantly-out-of-the-country phase -- and not once have we gotten on each other's nerves. We've actually never once fought. Not to brag or anything, but we're definitely perfect for each other, so.
Zach proposed to me without makeup on. Honestly I'm still horrified. Haven't recovered.
