We're getting married!

Braeden and Emma's love story began in the 7th grade. Seated across from each other at a school lunch table, their friendship blossomed alongside their mutual friends, many of whom will stand by their side as bridesmaids and groomsmen at their wedding. By the 8th grade, they were inseparable, spending countless hours together and sharing their first crushes. They officially started "dating" during this time, though parental rides and chaperoning were still needed. High school brought newfound freedom with driver's licenses, allowing Braeden and Emma to spend even more time together. They experienced the highs and lows of adolescence side by side, from football games and school dances to late-night studying and essay writing. Their love deepened with each passing year, and their plans for college and beyond solidified. Their journey continued at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. While their college years brought new friends and experiences, their bond remained unshakeable. They knew they had found their forever partners and began discussing their future together. After completing their junior year, Braeden proposed, and they moved into their first apartment as seniors. Naturally, wedding planning soon followed, marking the beginning of their happily ever after. Today, Braeden is a cardiac nurse at Nebraska Medical Center, and Emma is working to become a Licensed Stockbroker at Charles Schwab. The couple has since added Franklin the golden retriever to their family!
