We met at Boys and Girls High School in Brooklyn, NY, and over the years, we kept crossing paths through our friend circle and at curated events. Though we each lived full, independent lives and faced personal challenges, faith brought us back together. On a warm summer night at an end-of-summer pool party in New Jersey, we reconnected as friends—no expectations, just two friends sharing life stories—and in that moment we became lifelines for each other. Our journey hasn’t been without challenges, but our love has stood the test of time. Last summer, we reaffirmed our commitment and realized there’s no him without her and no her without him.

On Thanksgiving evening, 11/27/25, Kirk surprised Alisha with a proposal—down on one knee, surrounded by family and friends. As we prepare to exchange vows before our Savior, family, and friends on this special and scared day, June 20, 2026. We pledge our undying love and pray the Lord continually blessIing our marriage as we begin this new chapter together.
