We're David + Edward

We swiped right on Tinder and haven't looked back. Living our best life in the Midwest, we're based in Cleveland, Ohio, and work from home—David in healthcare IT and Edward as a UX designer.

When we're not working, we're all about good food and cozy home vibes. We love exploring new restaurants, trying recipes, and sharing our journey with you. In 2025, we're expecting to ramp up on our DIY skills with potential renovation projects in our basement, our primary suite, mudroom, foyer and laundry room with many heartwarming moments in between.

Join us as we find beauty in everyday life and grow together. Connect with us at contact@midwesthusbands.com or slide into our DMs on Instagram!
