OUR LOVE STORY
Where it all began
Our story begins in New York in 2018. We had both just left our families and friends behind, moved across the ocean knowing no one, but chasing our dreams. During our first week, a surprise birthday party brought us into the same room, where a moment on a sofa turned into a conversation that never really ended. From that night on, the city that never sleeps became our playground. We explored New York hand in hand, fell in love fast, laughed harder, and built lifelong friendships that felt like family. We were Young, Dumb, and Fully in this together.
Building a Life together
We always knew New York was just the beginning and that home would eventually call us back. In 2019, we crossed countries and borders to meet each other’s worlds, our families, our friends, and the places that shaped us, discovering how much stronger love becomes when it’s shared. Italy and Spain became our map, and in 2020 London became our home. There, surrounded by friends, family, and countless adventures (even during the strangest of times), we learned what it truly meant to build a life together. Wherever we were, one thing stayed constant: us, our love & laughter and traveling through it all side by side.
The Adventure Continues
After three unforgettable years in London, New York called us back, and once again, we followed our hearts. A brief long-distance chapter made the reunion even sweeter, and soon we were back in our favorite city, creating new memories and friendships. Between trips across the world, beach escapes, and a shared love for warm places and salty waters, life feels full and exciting. The Hamptons was the perfect setting for a question that had been answered a long time ago… and now, our journey brings us here, to ‘Galifornia’, ready to celebrate our love with all of you who have been part of OUR LOVE STORY.
WE CAN’T WAIT TO CELEBRATE TOGETHER IN…

A day in Coruña
If you like long walks with a view, you’ll love this. The Paseo Marítimo wraps along the coastline and connects many of the city’s highlights — beaches, viewpoints, and the Torre de Hércules. Easy, scenic, and very “Coruña”.
A Coruña’s most iconic landmark and the oldest Roman lighthouse still in use. The walk up is worth it for the Atlantic views, and the surrounding area is perfect for photos and fresh air.
La Marina is the postcard side of Coruña: elegant waterfront buildings lined with the famous galerías (glass-enclosed balconies).
Coruña is called “La Ciudad de Cristal” because these glass façades reflect light beautifully. They were designed to protect homes from wind and rain, preserving heat in the houses, while letting in as much daylight as possible.
This is the city’s main square, big, lively, and surrounded by beautiful architecture and the city’s Town Hall.
It’s named after María Pita, a local heroine who became a symbol of Coruña’s spirit and bravery during a historic attack on the city. Enjoy the free concerts at night, in the square during August.
For a classic city stroll, head into the centre and wander through:
Jardines de Méndez Núñez: leafy gardens with a calm, elegant feel.
Los Cantones: wide promenades lined with shops and cafés, ideal for an easy walk
This area is great for a relaxed afternoon: shopping, coffee, and a slow paseo.
One of the best viewpoints in the city. It used to be a strategic military area, and you can still see the old cannons overlooking the ocean.
Today it’s a peaceful park, with wide and spectacular views over the city and the coastline.
Go on a clear day or at sunset, if you can: the light falling over the Atlantic completely transforms the atmosphere.
Coruña Beaches
Whether you’re here to swim or just to sit with a view:
Riazor & Orzán: the city beaches, easy to reach, great for a seaside walk.
Bastiagueiro: more open, popular for surfing vibes and sunsets.
Mera: relaxed and pretty, perfect for a slower beach day.
A quick trip just outside the city, with a very “coastal Galicia” vibe. The Castillo de Santa Cruz sits on a small island and was built as a defensive fort to help protect the bay from attacks coming in by sea. Today it’s a scenic spot for a walk, ocean views, and a change of pace.
A day outside Coruña
Faro de Finisterre (Recommended Restaurante Tira do Cordel, book in advance) & Cascada del Ézaro
