How we Met

Brent and Elise first met in college, on the campus of St. Norbert College in 2009. While both were lost in their own adventures for many years, they always kept in touch throughout their travels. In 2016, when Elise returned from a 2-year stay in Thailand, the two decided to make a go at building a life together. 5 years and 6 countries later, Brent and Elise kept their wanderous spirits alive with a new adventure just beginning in Denver, CO.

The Proposal

Brent had grand plans for the proposal to Elise. They were going to Iceland, and he would get down on one knee underneath the Aurora Borealis. But Mother Nature had her own plans as a bomb cyclone rolled into the country for the majority of their trip. The winter storm dashed many of their excursions and eventually shut down the entire country. So while stuck in their room, ricketing from the howling winds, Brent got down on one knee. Elise said yes, and the rest is history.

For all the days along the way
