It all began with a simple swipe right on Bumble during the summer of 2021 — though they always loved telling people they met at the grocery store (just their little inside joke). What started as an online chat quickly led to exchanging numbers and planning their first date — which turned out to be the best first date of their lives.

One unforgettable date turned into many, and before they knew it, they were spending nearly every day together that summer. From a serendipitous connection to a deep and unshakable bond, Darnishia and Dom found a love worth forever.

Now, they are beyond excited to celebrate the next chapter of their journey with all of you! They’re hosting a beautiful destination wedding in breathtaking Miches, Dominican Republic, on Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2026 at Dreams Playa Esmeralda

They would love for you to join them for this unforgettable celebration as they say "I do" and become one.
