Nick and Kelsey grew up just 20 minutes apart, but had to wait until the summer of 2015 to meet. When Nick arrived on the doorstep of an old friend with some steaks and champagne, he was expecting a familiar face. Instead, he got a new one - his future wife - answering the door! Nick and Kelsey bonded over their love of the outdoors and cooking adventurously. Even when it required renting a car and driving 2 hours outside the city, they made Starved Rock State Park and Kettle Moraine their go-to outdoor fixes. They were engaged in August of 2018 and looked forward to spending their lives together! Then, in February of 2019, they made a big move - packing up their apartment in Chicago and driving across the country with their dog, Nemo, to start a new life in Boulder, CO. Today, they spend their weekends (and weekdays!) climbing the Flatirons and hiking in Rocky Mountain National Park. So, 4 years, 3 apartments, 2 cities, and one very fluffy, very needy furbaby later... they're getting hitched! They cannot wait to spend their lives together going on adventures - and they can't wait to share their new home with you at their wedding on October 12th!
