Our story starts just over 6 years ago while we were both working at Starbucks. Elle worked at the store for a couple years before she watched Kyle walk through the door to start his first day. Many early mornings opening the store together and lots of shenanigans led us to quickly becoming best friends. Our first date was in November. Kyle asked Elle to go to lunch and hangout as friends. We had lunch, then drove to Piedmont park to see the botanical gardens. Being poor college students, we could not afford the ticket prices. Instead, we walked through the park and spent many hours talking and laughing together. Just as anyone in a relationship can attest to, things in the beginning were very difficult. Being young, in school, having external stressors in life, and so much more led to us breaking up at one point. It was extremely difficult, but only lasted a week before we realized we still wanted to be together. From that point on, things continued to flourish and get better each year. The constant support and friendship we had for each other really helped make the difficulties in life seem so much less than. Our promise to each other was that we would get married once we both graduated from university. Elle graduated from KSU with her BFA in Graphic Communications in January 2019, then started a career in production at a marketing company. She still works there now, but has since moved up to a creative position in the company doing work for Kroger and other clients. Kyle graduated from ASU with his BS in Information Security in May 2021. He has worked at Apple for the last 5 years as a customer service expert. He continues to work there, but is on the job hunt for a more permanent career in InfoSec. We are so blessed and grateful that we made it to this point - 6 years in the making and so many memories and good times to remember. Thank you all for being a part of our journey together and for supporting and loving us.
