Love Stories

Christine was on a brief business trip in Chicago. She went to Pizano’s for pizza on her last night and struck up a conversation with local guy Rick. Because she was headed back home, she gave Rick her leftover pizza (classic move!) They exchanged a text or two and a few months later they ended up texting about business stuff, then had an impromptu dinner, and have basically been inseparable ever since.

"I have met the woman of my dreams. She lives in New York and we are both amazed that we have found each other. We both love maps so I wonder if there could be a mappy background indicating where we are both from, and then two figures walking towards each other holding maps, trying to find each other. Something that indicates we were lost and showing us on the brink of finding each other.

And then:

"I got the package and I absolutely love it! It’s so wonderful and so perfect. It’s amazing."

Nancy was an American studying in a small town in Finland in 1973. She'd been told about a guy called Pertti who it may be good to meet. One day she was walking across a bridge. A Finnish man was walking from the other direction. "Are you Pertti?" she asked. 46 years later they commissioned this Glass Cathedral, so you can guess the answer...

"We had our first kiss on 20th August 2020 on a double sunbed in my garden at night. Watching the most active night of shooting stars I counted 7, Christian counted 3. Then we kissed."

"I gave my boyfriend his cathedral at Christmas, he was completely overwhelmed and teary eyed. It now holds a beautiful place of honor in our home. Thank you so much for capturing such a special memory for us!!!"

Matt (French) and Rachel (English) met dancing in Lisbon. They've been together ever since.

This was a most unusual and magical commission, telling a true love story in the making. While the lived reality is not quite there, this gift manifests their shared dream of being together.
