We met in Miami Beach, though really, we had been traveling toward each other for years...

​

Ethan had moved to Miami after living in New York and was living with his roommate, Akash. That same night, Michi went out with her friends, one of whom was Rachel, who happened to have friends in common with Akash. And through that beautiful little tangle of friends-of-friends, both groups ended up on the same rooftop: a bar called Gitano.

​

Michi walked in and looked straight at Ethan.

Ethan was already looking at her.

​

A glance, a quiet pull, a curiosity to know more. The night carried on around them until, somehow, they found each other on the dance floor, under the disco ball.

Another song was playing, but the moment went quiet. And somewhere inside it, Frank Sinatra’s Strangers in the Night began.

​

“Do you know how to dance?” Michi asked.

Ethan laughed.

“Let me teach you.”

One, two, three. Okay, now left, then right.

Half Zumba class, half love story.

They laughed, and the rest is history.

​

Since then, we’ve been traveling the world, only to realize we had already found home in each other.

Michi was born in Argentina and moved to the US when she was five, with a year and a half in Barcelona woven into her story along the way. Ethan was born in the US, grew up in England from the age of two, and came back years later, just in time to meet the love of his life.

​

A little royal, a little quilombo.

​

We can’t wait to celebrate it all with you
