Nicholas and Hayley were both born and raised in Columbus, IN. The couple first met in their freshman year biology class at Columbus East High School in 2010 but it wasn’t until their junior year of high school that they really got to know one another. After spending more time and hanging out with mutual friends together, Nicholas asked Hayley to be his girlfriend on September 24th, 2012. What Hayley initially thought was going to be a short-lived relationship (as most of their fellow classmates), turned into an 8 year long relationship with her best friend. Nicholas and Hayley have been by each other’s side for most of their greatest accomplishments- both graduating from the Columbus East High School Class of 2014, graduating from the IUPUI Class of 2018, and moving across the country to Seattle, WA to begin their post-graduate lives together. Over the years, their environment has changed and some people have come and gone, but the constant has always been their love and friendship with one another. Nicholas and Hayley cannot wait to share their special day with the most important people in their lives for a celebration of almost a decade of what it means to be in love with your best friend.
