From Tony:
“15 years ago today in an effort to expand my community, I met a stranger at a bar in Florida. I hoped we would become friends. Almost instantly, the connection was intensely fun. I was completely mesmerized by his smile and his laugh. We talked for hours about life, our values, music, and a host of mundane details that seemed suddenly to be very important. Now here we are, in a place I never dreamed we would be. Directors in our fields, living in one of the greatest cities in the world, exploring the planet bit by bit each year, utterly obsessed with each other. Here’s to another 15 years of joy, my love Marko. I cannot wait to see what happens next ;)”

From Marko:
“exactly 15-years ago, today, these babies embarked on an adventure that would take them outside of the normalcy and comfort of their seemingly “fine” lives, and throw them into an unexpected love that would see many iterations of not only their relationship but themselves as human beings. here they are … husbands, friends, partners, and constants that have seen the many ups and various downs of life, and managed to persevere time after time … and did it all together.
and here we are, 15-years later … Tony Christopher-Critelli, love of my life, keeper of my heart. i am so happy to do this life “thing” with you and can’t wait to see what the next phase holds for us. you’ll always be that slightly disheveled man with the heartfelt belly laugh and unwavering, laser-focused attention that was supposed to be nothing more than a great friend … that turned into a great life partner. i love you more today than i ever thought i could - and i can’t wait to love you more tomorrrow and every day after that. you are the best and i am better for loving you. thank you for being my man and for doing life with me.
i love you, handsome.”
