Our Story

Whitney and Travis were born and raised in Salem, IL but they didn't start to get to know one another until adulthood. Their first date was November 11, 2017 and from there they had an instant connection. For the first two and half years they traveled every weekend to see each other. Whitney lived in Salem while Travis lived in St. Louis. They supported each other through so many life events; master's programs, graduations, funerals, job promotions, new jobs, and sharing a home together. They love watching "The Office" and "How I Met Your Mother," movies, traveling to new places, and trying new experiences in the St. Louis area. Being together feels like home. Travis proposed to Whitney on November 24, 2021. Travis selected one of Whitney's favorite places to propose, The Flamingo Hotel in Las Vegas, NV. Travis planned the proposal with Whitney's closest family. Whitney and Travis are so excited to begin the next chapter of their lives with all of their loved ones!
