The story of us

From the moment she asked him to junior prom in high school, their story began. They went to prom together but didn’t talk much afterward, until a few months later when he texted her during summer break. That message led to their first date at Sycamore Grove, and on August 11, 2013, they officially started dating. The start of a relationship that would shape both of their lives. After high school, they both attended the University of Nevada, Reno, where they navigated college life side by side. Through every high and low, they learned how to show up for one another, growing not just as individuals but as partners. They graduated, and distance soon became a hard part of their story. They faced four years of long distance. While it wasn’t always easy, it made their relationship stronger and proved that no amount of miles could lessen the foundation that they had built. In 2022, they finally closed the distance and moved in together back where it all began, stepping into a long-awaited new chapter. The following year, their home and their hearts grew even fuller when they adopted their sweet, silly pup, Lupine, who quickly became an irreplaceable part of their little family. Then at the end of August 2024, after eleven years of love, growth, and countless memories, they traveled to Alaska. Beneath the peak of the northern lights, he asked the question she had been waiting for all these years and of course, she said yes. Another unforgettable milestone followed in December 2025 when they bought their first home, their biggest financial accomplishment yet. Through every showing, signature, and late-night conversation, they leaned on each other, reminded that wherever life takes them, home is ultimately wherever they are together. Their story has been shaped by years of friendship, steady love, and choosing each other again and again. Now, they can’t wait to continue building a life, a home, and a future side by side.
