The vows I made to you.

From the moment our paths crossed,

we have been walking each other home.

Not just across the miles between Georgia and North Carolina —

but across something older —

a knowing that feels written beyond time.

The first time we me, we stood just steps from here in the front yard,

looking at each other —

in that exciting moment when two live suddenly realize they are about to change.

And now we stand here again —

on the same piece of earth,

only a few steps away,

choosing the life that moment began.

You’ve shown me what it feels like to be chosen.

You are the kindest being I have ever known.

You love expansively.

You feel deeply.

You are my best friend,

my dearest Soulmate,

and I am honored to be given the chance to fall in love with you.

You crossed worlds to find me.

You are my Starman —

and my Starman came to stay.

Together we created Celamoria,

our special place where everything about it feels beyond ordinary.

It’s the place where we dream together —

about the life we are building and the adventures still waiting for us.

And yes —

maybe those adventures include finding that perfect mid-century spaceship house

and filling it with dozens more Persian rugs,

because our old souls can never have too many rugs. 😊❤️

Whatever shape our future takes,

I know one thing that matters most —

that we get to experience it together.

So today,

I promise to meet life with you,

with honesty,

kindness,

openness and patience,

and with the same sense of wonder that brought us here.

To grow beside you,

to build a life that feels magical and deeply ours.

We waited for this —

for each other.

And with you,

I know exactly where I belong.

From the moment our paths crossed,

we’ve been walking each other home.

And now…

we get to keep walking together.
