Christina + Drew

Pronouns: she/her + she/her

Orientations: gay + gay

Homebase: New Jersey

Proposal spot: Washington Square Park, New York


Christina and Drew met in 2018 at New York City’s historic LGBTQ+ bar, The Cubbyhole. Christina was instantly attracted to Drew’s Ruby Rose haircut. The pair started dating long distance, as Christina lived in New Jersey and Drew in Tennessee. They now live together in New Jersey.

In the same city where they met, Christina got down on one knee in Washington Square Park and proposed to Drew with a moonstone ring.

“We look forward to growing up as individuals, but creating this bond as a unit,” they said.

The couple loves that they never get bored of one another and can always make each other laugh. That joy is clear in their engagement photo session at a greenhouse.
