We're getting married!

Like so many modern love stories, ours started with a swipe — on Hinge, of all places! Kimberly thought Ben was incredibly handsome, and he thought she was absolutely beautiful. After a few messages (and maybe some overthinking about what to say next), we decided to meet in person for pizza at Dante’s. It didn’t take long to realize we both had a lot in common, specifically our priorities of faith, family, and football. From cheering on our favorite teams (Go Vols & Go Hokies!) to regular dinner dates, and everything in between, we quickly became each other’s favorite teammate in life. Then came the biggest surprise — on the 4th of July, while everyone else was waiting for fireworks, Ben had his own sparkly plan. He completely shocked Kimberly by getting down on one knee on a boat in the middle of Lake Chesdin, and she said yes! Now, we can’t wait to celebrate our next big adventure together — surrounded by the people we love most. Thank you for being a part of the next chapter of our story!
