From Germany to Italy to Colorado, Sara and Robert’s love story soars to the top! ⛰️💍
Sara and Robert first met at 3am on Ramstein Air Base in August 2021, while supporting the evacuation of 124,000 people during Operation Allies Refuge in Afghanistan. Two strangers from opposite sides of Germany were brought together by one of history's most extraordinary moments. They went their separate ways the next day not knowing if they would ever meet again, but fate had other plans, and a chance reunion two weeks later led to exchanged numbers and the beginning of a worldwide love story! 💘
Fast forward to their first real date on a four-day escape to Cinque Terre, Italy, where Sara and Robert both knew in their hearts that this was their love of a lifetime! Most of their relationship was long-distance, spanning different countries and time zones, with months apart and no certainty of when they would see each other next. Sara and Robert held on because they both knew it was worth it. 🤍
In April 2025, they moved to Colorado together, and before a six-month deployment, Sara and Robert eloped at the Colorado Springs DMV, a promise that meant everything. On New Year's Eve 2025, surrounded by close friends at a Blue Ridge Mountain cabin in Georgia, the proposal happened over pizza, beer, and a fire pit! Sara had no idea, and it was absolutely perfect. Now, after a gorgeous ceremony at Spruce Mountain Ranch, a dog named Pearl, and Colorado as their home, they cannot wait to see what the next chapter holds. 🎉
Thank you, Sara and Robert, for sharing your engagement story with us! We loved being a part of your beautiful wedding on 4/24/26 at Spruce Mountain Ranch, and we wish you a lifetime of happiness! 🤍
