We’re getting married!

Despite attending both middle school and high school together, Carley and Hayden’s paths truly merged after their graduation in the fall of 2018. Unbeknownst to them, they also attended preschool together, laying the foundation for their connection long before they realized it. At that time, Carley was focused on her career while Hayden was in his junior year at Georgian Court University when he expressed his interest in her. Initially, they only imagined their relationship would end up being just a fling. However, from that moment on, they became inseparable. Over the years, their relationship has blossomed into something far beyond what they could have imagined back in 2018. They’ve shared countless memories and moments that make it feel as though they’ve known each other forever. The way they make each other laugh and the excitement they feel when one returns home after a long day of work illustrate a love that is effortless and timeless. Their journey has not been without its challenges, especially as they navigated the difficulties of starting out in life. From balancing school and work to adapting to new responsibilities, they’ve faced these obstacles hand in hand. Yet, through every trial, there has never been any doubt in their minds about their commitment to one another. The outcome has always been the same: a deeper bond and a shared dedication to building a future together.
