October 2024: A Wit-Filled Love Story in the Mountains

Lola and Dominic’s love story is one for the digital age, sparked by a mutual love of banter and quick wit. Introduced online through mutual friends during a video game session, their chemistry was immediate. “These two are the most opinionated people we know; they’re perfect for each other,” their friends joked. Long-distance at first, Lola eventually moved to Georgia to be closer to Dominic, solidifying their bond through shared humor and a playful connection. One of their first debates? Which mattress Lola should buy—Dominic, ever the expert, had plenty of advice, complete with exact temperatures and details.

For Lola, the moment she met Dominic in person, she knew he was the one. “He felt like home,” she says. For Dominic, it was during a quiet night on the back porch of his new Atlanta home, surrounded by nature. What started as “I like you a lot” quickly became “I love you,” marking a profound shift in his life from independence to partnership.

Why the Mountains?

The mountains hold a special place in their story. Not only did they get engaged in the mountains, but the natural beauty and serenity resonate deeply with Lola’s love for nature. For Dominic, who grew up in New England and North Georgia, the mountains are a familiar part of life, tied to family traditions like hunting on Mount Katahdin. Their decision to marry in the mountains reflects a shared sense of adventure and a desire to celebrate their love in a place that feels meaningful and timeless.

What Makes Their Love Special

Lola admires Dominic’s heart, describing him as someone who isn’t just willing to give the shirt off his back but will sit with you in life’s hardest moments. She treasures his humor, even when his corny jokes carry on for six months longer than they should. For Dominic, it’s Lola’s tender, loving nature that stands out. Her warmth has given him the security to be vulnerable in ways he never experienced before.

Their playful banter is a cornerstone of their relationship. Whether it’s Lola wiggling her nose at people or Dominic’s confident (sometimes overconfident) one-liners, their quirks bring joy and laughter to their everyday life.

Looking to the Future

In 30 years, Lola and Dominic see themselves as adventurous as ever. Whether traveling the world or exploring new places closer to home, they are determined never to be stagnant. With dreams of a Tokyo honeymoon and a shared love of trying new things, their journey together promises to be filled with excitement, humor, and love.

Their mountain wedding is just the beginning of a lifetime of shared adventures—a celebration of their unique connection, their cherished quirks, and the endless banter that makes their love truly one of a kind.
