Our Story

We first crossed paths at North Island College, where Phoebe was pursuing her post-graduate degree and Aiden was taking a business class. Despite being classmates, we didn't really talk until a board game event at the college library. That's when Aiden got to know more about Phoebe, and our story truly began, leading us on adventures across continents and through the ups and downs of life together...

In the small town of Campbell River, amidst the snow and the cozy warmth of Maryann's house, Aiden's heart began to beat a little faster every time he saw Phoebe. Little did they know, that chance meeting on a snowy day was just the start of a beautiful love story.
