Connect How did your love story begin?

I love telling this story! It started at a kids’ music showcase—Errol was the quiet soul teaching music, tucked behind his keyboard, content in the background. Then I, Genevie: vibrant, curious, and drawn to the calm in his presence. I walked right up, asked for his number, and two weeks later invited myself over. He could barely hold my gaze for five seconds at a time—but from the start, something unspoken clicked. The loud girl and the quiet boy—somehow, it just made sense.

What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?

Our favorite memories started small—him sharing his love for gaming, me slowly falling for the world he treasures. But the moment that truly defined us was standing before our family, exchanging vows. In that space, we showed how our love blossomed naturally, without a hitch. It was more than words—it was a promise and a celebration of everything that brought us together, the quiet moments and the big ones, all woven into our story.

What would you do with $20,000?

As newlyweds and young adults just starting our journey together, we would use $20,000 to help us take the next step toward independence—saving for our first home. Building a life together means everything to us, and my biggest dream is to create a warm, loving home where I can grow into the kind of wife—and eventually mother—I’ve always wanted to be. This would bring us one step closer to that future.
