It’s happening!

We met at Calvin College our freshman year, thanks to Claire’s twin, Olivia. During our relationship, we have lived in Grand Rapids, MI, but also in Ben’s hometown, Three Lakes, WI. We even spent one January apart when we both travelled across the world to Nepal and the Phillipines. After dating for four years, Ben proposed on a mountaintop in Yosemite National Park. It was an unforgettable memory with an unforgettable view. Now we cannot wait to spend the rest of our lives together!

Claire is a nurse at Blodgett Hospital in East Grand Rapids, MI. Claire is excited to continue challenging herself in her career. Ben is an analyst in the Commercial department at Mercantile Bank in Grand Rapids. Ben eagerly takes on opportunities for growth and development and has big plans for his future.
