Our Story

First comes marriage, then comes dating, then comes marriage again

Owen and Ellie met on the stage of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat as husband and wife... Although Ellie thought Owen was "bossy" during the musical, Owen's dreamy eyes couldn't keep her away. Soon after, they started dating. Throughout high school, Owen and Ellie continued being husband and wife on stage, even welcoming two babies, one made of dried corn and the other a stuffed monkey. After 7 years, a lot of schooling, and Ellie showing Owen the true meaning of fast food, Owen proposed to Ellie on December 21st, 2024, through a custom-made video game which took seven months to create. As the date approaches, Owen and Ellie are gearing up to celebrate their wedding with you on December 12, 2026, at Arbor Midtown in Rochester, New York.
