We will continue to update this site as more information becomes available.

Our Relationship.

We met on February 23, 2020 for brunch at Mémé Mediterranean in the West Village of NYC. It was a 55 degree day and our meal wrapped up with a glass of wine outside. When the COVID-19 lockdown came, we decided to quarantine together (remember when we thought it’d only be 2 weeks long?)

After our relationship grew and Luna was no longer trying to kill Sukha, we moved in together in February 2021.

We first spoke of marriage on September 9, 2021 over dinner in Trastevere, Rome. Josh proposed to Storm on October 21, 2022.

Why Destination?

We traveled to Italy, México, Greece, and India together. If you know us, travel is core to us as individuals and as partners.

We see a destination wedding as a chance to bring our loved ones together, not just for a single day, but for an extended celebration rooted in our love.

Why México?

México has a special place in our hearts. It's the only country we've traveled to together and before we met. Whether it's the bustling streets of México City, the tranquil waters of Bacalar, or the charming colonial town of Mérida, México is magical.

We've traveled to México more than anywhere else, and it's where we created some of our most treasured memories. If you've never been, we can't wait for you to experience México
for yourself.
