Our story began at Oregon State University, when Jake moved into the townhouse just across the alley. From the moment we met, there was a spark and an effortless connection that made every conversation feel easy and every day a little more fun. But with graduation on the horizon and our futures pulling us in different directions, we weren't sure what the future would hold. Still, life seemed determined to keep bringing us back together. No matter how far apart we were, we found ourselves missing the comfort, laughter, and familiarity we had found in each other. What started as late-night conversations and shared college memories slowly grew into something we couldn't ignore. Looking back, it feels like our story was always finding its way forward. Through every twist, turn, and unexpected reunion, we kept choosing each other. Now, after years of adventures, memories, and a lot of laughter, we're so excited to celebrate the next chapter of our story - as husband and wife! As we prepare for our wedding day, one of the things we’re most looking forward to is celebrating with the people who have been part of our journey. We feel incredibly lucky to be surrounded by such loving family and friends, and it means the world to have you share in this moment with us. Thank you for your love, support, and friendship throughout the years. Having all of our favorite people together to celebrate this next chapter is truly the greatest gift we could ask for.
