We met in high school at the beach, thanks to a friend of a friend who happened to bring Luke along on my family’s annual beach trip. What started as a week of hanging out, talking, and getting to know each other turned into something neither of us expected. Cue Muscadine Bloodline's song "Meant to be Friends". At the time, we lived two and a half hours apart — and as a sophomore and senior in high school, it probably shouldn’t have worked as easily as it did. But somehow, thanks to a lot of trust in the Lord, and a million Facetime calls, it always did. Six years later, we’re still choosing each other. We got the chance to grow up together, and now we get to grow old together too. We cannot wait to celebrate this long-time-coming love with you.
