Becka & Charlie

How it started

Our Story

Becka and Charlie met online during Covid, in the Rusty Nut Tavern. Their first meeting was not promising: he was trying to sell counterfeit magical items, and she was on the run from a ten-year marriage. They were both playing Dungeons & Dragons.

At the time, she was moving to Ghana and he was planning a move to Singapore, but something about the connection made it feel worth pursuing.

Six years, one house purchase and a new qualification each later, they’re super excited to get married!

Throughout our whole relationship, the people we surround ourselves with have remained a shared passion, and that includes you!
