How we metBy the bride, Xenia:
Our love story began in a way that felt destined. Jamison and I met through his cousin, who was a student at my school at the time. I had no idea that a casual introduction would spark the beginning of something so beautiful.
It was a typical day on campus when his cousin casually mentioned Jamison to me, though we hadn’t met yet. I remember him describing Jamison as this kind, reserved, down-to-earth guy, but at the time, I didn’t think much of it. It wasn’t until a few weeks later that we finally crossed paths. What was supposed to be a quick hello turned into a deep, meaningful conversation that flowed so naturally. We talked about everything from the culture shock of moving to the US and my love for Korean dramas to our dreams and aspirations. It felt easy, like we’d known each other for much longer than a few minutes. And from that moment, I could tell the was the one.
But what truly makes Jamison even more special to me is how he reminds me so much of my dad in every way. There’s a comfort in his presence that feels familiar, almost like home. From his unwavering sense of responsibility and his calm, steady demeanor, to the way he takes care of me and those he loves—everything about him mirrors the qualities that I admire so much in my father. Jamison embodies that same strength, kindness, and support that my dad always gives to our family. It’s a rare and beautiful thing to find someone who so effortlessly fills the space of both your heart and the memories of someone you deeply love and respect.
Every moment with Jamison feels like a blessing, and I am so thankful to have him by my side as we continue to build our lives together. Our love story is a reminder that sometimes, the best things come when you least expect them—and that fate really does have a way of bringing the right people together at the perfect time.
