From flowers and teddy bears to vacations and purses, love reveals itself in both the simplest gestures and the grandest surprises. Love itself is a gift—one that cannot be taken for granted. As we celebrate our 25th year together, every moment feels like a reminder that true partnership is built not only on passion but also on gratitude, patience, and joy in the everyday.

Love is not just a moment—it’s a lifetime in motion.

Izzy, affectionately known as “Chabohole,” has always loved to host a good party. That spirit came alive on our wedding day in Punta Cana, where we celebrated in a way that only felt right for us—big, bold, and unforgettable. The night sparkled with neon lights, laughter carried through the warm air, and watermelon mojitos kept spirits high. Against the backdrop of crashing waves, we sealed our vows with “I do’s,” forever connecting our story to the ocean’s timeless rhythm.

Tommy still swears that it was sand in his eyes, not tears, as he watched Izzy walk gracefully down the aisle with her parents. Yet no one could deny the raw emotion of that moment. Surrounded by nearly one hundred friends and family, we felt the power of love magnified—an audience gathered not just to witness, but to truly celebrate the union of two souls destined to journey together.

As the years continue to unfold, love remains the thread that ties our story together—through laughter, travel, family, and the little surprises that remind us we are never alone in this journey. From the first glance to this 25th year and beyond, our bond continues to grow stronger, shaping not just our milestones but the everyday rhythm of our lives. Love has been our compass, our celebration, and our home—and it will always guide us toward new memories yet to be made.
