It all began at a lively little bar in Wilton Manors, FL called Scandals. It wasn’t planned, it wasn’t expected—but fate clearly had other ideas. From the moment Jean and Tim met, there was an undeniable spark. But things weren’t so simple at first. Despite their connection, Tim hesitated to date Jean because of his age.

Time, however, has a funny way of revealing what truly matters. As they continued to get to know each other, and with the wise counsel from one of Tim's long time friends Seisha, Tim began to realize that love doesn’t check IDs—it just knows when it’s right. On November 14th, 2022, over a plate of chicken wings at one of Tim and Jean's favorite restaurants, Wings Plus, Tim asked Jean to be his—and of course, Jean said yes.

Since that day, their lives together have been nothing short of magical. They’ve explored the world hand-in-hand, from the ruins of Pompei in Italy to the mountains of Romania, the coastlines of Portugal, the mosques in Morocco, the beauty of Canada, island hopping in Greece and countless adventures across the United States. They’ve remodeled a condo, and yes survived the work ethic and shadiness of Florida contractors, laughed until they cried, and built a home filled with love—not just between them, but shared with their amazing family, friends, and their beloved dog, Eros.

What started as a chance meeting turned into a lifetime of joy—and they can’t wait to continue their journey together, surrounded by the people who mean the most to them.
