We met at a Fourth of July BBQ in 2025. We both noticed each other at the party and were immediately attracted, but somehow never made eye contact until one of Cory’s friends brought Michelle over to meet him.
We booked a photographer for the Fourth of July to celebrate one year of knowing each other. We thought pictures with fireworks would be cute and on brand for us... and Cory knew it would also be the perfect moment to propose, too <3
The depth with which we both feel, and our ability to communicate — maybe too much sometimes. ;) We both fell in love with the other person’s willingness to talk things through, admit when we’re wrong, and keep learning and growing together.
We got married in a small, intimate ceremony surrounded by our immediate families and a few close friends. It was simple, sweet, and very us. Now we’re so excited to celebrate with everyone we love on October 22nd!
