    He loves to cook and she loves to eat. He likes to talk and she likes to listen. They both enjoy traveling, reading and trying new things. Rumor has it that together they hold the world record for the longest binge-watching in a day knocking out 3 seasons of Orange is the new Black and 4 seasons of Game of Thrones (on a separate occasion).

    She tames him and he gets her hot and bothered with their fire and ice personalities. While they are of different cultures (he is of Nigerian and American heritage, she is of Haitian heritage) they have found that they really really have a lot in common.

    They have enjoyed each other for the past 4 years and want to celebrate their commitment to each other with their closest friends and family - and that means You!
