Our Story

Briana & Kendall

The Bride & Groom

Kendall and Briana's love story began in the most unexpected of ways—over a borrowed textbook. The two first met in college at the University of Illinois-Springfield, where Briana asked Kendall if she could borrow his book for class. Little did they know, that simple request would be the beginning of a beautiful journey together. Their connection was instant, and after that first exchange, they soon found themselves spending more and more time together. By the time they graduated in 2017, Kendall and Briana had not only earned their degrees but had also built a life full of love, laughter, and adventure. In 2016, they expanded their family when they adopted Drew, a lovable dog who quickly became the third member of their team. Drew has been with them through all the ups and downs, and now, as they take this next step together, he will be by their side as they begin their next chapter as husband and wife. Kendall and Briana are a perfect match—both kind-hearted, caring, and ready for whatever life brings their way. They are incredibly excited to celebrate their love with all of you today and look forward to continuing to grow, laugh, and create new memories together as a married couple.
