We've had a passing knowledge of each other for the last several years, both being pretty active members of Emmanuel Baptist Church in Crestview, FL, but our paths rarely crossed. We believe God is perfect in His timing and brought us together. He gave us a few opportunities to collaborate on media projects together in the spring and summer of 2020. And Kirsten gave Greg some of her family recipe chocolate chip cookies. :) We served together at that summer’s Vacation Bible School and went on our first date a short time later. We just kept going on dates and love quickly followed. Greg surprised Kirsten with a gorgeous proposal (and ring!) in January.
We're so lucky to have loved ones in lots of places! So we're going to celebrate in more than one place! The June 29th ceremony and reception will take place in Crestview, FL for those who are local, have family nearby, and Kirsten's immediate family. We're planning to stream the ceremony portion for Kirsten's out-of-state family and any other guests unable to attend in person. On July 9th, Greg and Kirsten will be in WI for a reception/open house with family and friends in Kirsten's home town.
