How our song began
2019 · spring
The first note
Same class, same song on repeat
2020 · summer
Our first dance
An empty ballroom, and our very first waltz

2023 · autumn
Meeting the families
Side by side at both family tables
2025 · winter
A ring and a question
“Will you dance with me forever?”

2027 · spring
And now, our waltz
Our first dance — with all of you
The day we dance
Saturday, May 22, 2027 · 4:30 PM
