Our first date was quite literally love at first sight. We spent the day out on the lake with Catie’s family, surrounded by good music, laughter, and that sweet nervous excitement!! From the very beginning our conversations about life and our core values came so naturally, it was clear we were aligned. We both felt an instant connection and by the end of that day we knew it was the start of something far greater than either of us could have imagined. We really believe God brought us together. From the moment we met, it’s been clear that this is part of His plan for us. We’ve grown closer through traveling, spending time together, competitive pickleball games, and so many special moments with our families who mean the world to us. We feel so blessed to have found each other and be loved whole heartedly. We are so excited for this next chapter of our lives! We can’t wait to start out forever with the people we love the most. The people in our lives mean everything to us, and nothing excites us more than having our loved ones all together in one place to celebrate this season.
