To our beloved friends and family - we're getting married!

Both fueled with competitiveness, wit, and a sprinkle of deviousness, Anna and Ryan were instant friendly foes when they met during a homeschool rafting excursion in 2012. They continued to get to know each other after joining the same youth group where they delved into many heated discussions, debates, and challenged each other's logic while extrapolating scripture. But we all know that the line of love and hate is a fine one! While healthy competition between them was strong, they were both impressed by the other's relationship with the Lord and their passion for learning and adventure. To only their surprise (everyone else saw this coming) eventually their arguments transformed into vulnerable conversation, confessions, and prayer between two very kindred spirits. In July of 2015 Anna and Ryan excitedly met up at a bookstore and expressed that this friendship was something they never wanted to lose. So they dated. It was as simple as that. No dramatic love confession - just two foes who had become best friends. And the rest? .... well, we hope you tune in on August 10th. The best is yet to come. “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived”— are the things God has prepared for those who love him." 1 Corinthians 2:9
