We met on our first day of college in 2017 at Colorado State University. Living on the same hall in our dorm, we became fast friends and by the end of freshman year of college started dating. Throughout our time in college and graduate school, our love for one another has deepened, and after getting engaged in the fall of 2023, we couldn't wait any longer to start our lives together so we decided to get married in a small ceremony over winter break from school. We have loved marriage so far and are so excited to celebrate our union with all of our loved ones in July!
