We first met our freshman year at Illinois State University. To be more specific, it was at a party hosted by Anthony's fraternity. What better place to meet! We quickly became friends, and by the summer of 2017, our friendship blossomed into a romance. Fast forward to August 2022, we got engaged, marking a beautiful milestone in our journey together. Since then, we purchased our first home and have been taking our time planning our wedding and enjoying our engagement, savoring every moment of this special chapter in our lives.
