To our friends and family:

Welcome! We're so excited to celebrate our special day with you. Thank you so much for being there for both of us in our journey to get here. A special thank you to our parents, John & Kerry and Steve & Shannon, for their endless love and support. Find all the details you need to know about our big day here- cheers! Love, Emma & Drew

Our Story

We met freshman year at Xavier University. While we didn't start dating until after college, we became close friends in school and each other’s favorite classmates in math (even if Drew wasn't that helpful). A few years after graduation, Drew moved from Lawrence, Kansas back to Cincinnati to start working with the Reds. Emma was living in Charlotte, North Carolina. While visiting Cincy friends that Spring, Emma asked Drew to celebrate his new job and catch up over drinks. We met for Moscow mules at Liberty's Bar & Bottle on Main Street and never stopped talking after. Emma moved back to Cincinnati the following year and we officially started dating. Fast forward a few years, many trips, and countless fun later, we finally moved in together (with Emma's cat Sansa). Just a few blocks from Drew's (and our wedding officiant Brian) old apartment in Over-the-Rhine. We’ve continued to grow in love and life together. Drew proposed to Emma on December 20th, 2023 at his parent’s home in White Bear Lake under the stars. One of the dearest places in both our hearts and we can’t wait to welcome you and celebrate our love together in the fall of 2025!
