Chedrick and Sterkenburg’s epic love story began in the bustling street of Alexandria, Virginia. On March 17, 2022, Sterk was fasting, so she opted for hot water at Java loco coffee shop while he ate a blueberry muffin with hot chocolate. Their chance encounter led to an instant connection, fueled with a 2.5-hour conversation of laughter, stories of similar upbringing, and mutual attraction. As their love blossomed, they explored various activities such as dancing, hiking, fitness competitions, local sight seeing, international travels, working out, good eats, family visits, standing by each other through life's experiences, and most importantly deep dive sessions about the word of God. One thing with this couple is that they enjoy the art of conversation, and they can discuss various topics with ease.

Now, they are excited to embark on the next chapter of their journey as husband and wife, with huge gratitude for their serendipitous moment that brought them together.
