We're getting Married!

2013 | It started the way the best things do — unexpectedly. Freshman year of high school brought two hearts together, falling into the sweetest kind of puppy love. Young, hopeful, and completely unaware that this was only the beginning. 2017 | Life had other plans. Bryan headed off to Georgia Southern University, while Emma made her way to Kennesaw State University and then on to University of Tennessee Chattanooga. Two paths diverging, each growing into who they were meant to become. 2021 | Bryan made his way to Clemson, South Carolina, partnering with his brother Braeden to build something of his own in real estate. A new city, a new chapter; though he didn't know yet just how much was waiting for him there. 2023 | Emma chose Clemson University to pursue her PhD, following her own ambitions to that same small town in South Carolina. The universe, it turns out, had been quietly arranging things all along. Then & Now | Ten years after that first hello, they found each other again. Older, wiser, and finally ready. What once was right person, wrong time had become simply: right. Some love stories take the long way around, and that's exactly what makes them worth telling.
