Our story began at the start of our senior year of high school, brought together by a mutual friend who will always hold a special place in our hearts. What started as a simple connection quickly turned into something neither of us could have imagined. We finished high school side by side, cheering each other on as life began to take shape. After graduation, our paths looked a little different—I headed off to college, while he completed two years of college before answering the call to serve in the military. Even through distance, new challenges, and growing seasons, our bond only grew stronger. Seven years into our journey, he asked me to be his forever, and that moment marked the beginning of the next beautiful chapter of our lives. Through every milestone, we’ve learned the meaning of patience, commitment, and unconditional love. As we step into marriage, we are committed to continuing our journey together with God by our side, building a life rooted in faith, love, and purpose. We are so excited to begin this new chapter and cannot wait to celebrate our love surrounded by our family, friends, and loved ones who have supported us every step of the way.
