We’re getting married!

It was December 2009 at the Libertyville tree lighting ceremony. I ran into Ryan while wearing chunky black glasses, thick black eyeliner, and just saw the new Justin Bieber movie. I was in 8th grade and had a huge crush on this sophomore in high school. Ryan claims he was instantly attracted to my "unique" look and outgoing personality. After many games of hide and seek and snowball fights, 2011 began our love story. Ryan and I talked for hours over a chocolate shake from Portillo's and our friendship soon turned into something more. The month of December holds so many milestones for us. Which includes the first time we met, when we started dating, introducing a fur pup to our family, buying a home, and popping the question. We want to share this happy month with our loved ones by celebrating this exciting new chapter in our lives!

As we all adapt to an uncertain time with COVID-19 (coronavirus), we are monitoring the news carefully. We are prepared to take every precaution necessary to make our wedding safe for our guests. Our wedding is happening as planned, and we look forward to celebrating with you all on 12.20.20!
