Our love story began in the fall of 2018 when we matched on Hinge. The app showed us how far apart we were, and to our surprise, we discovered that we were both working in the Capitol building in Washington D.C., just steps away from each other. A few weeks later, we went on our first date, an ice cream date that turned into hours of heartfelt conversation and laughter. From that moment, we knew we had found something special. Now, we reside in Northern Virginia with our beloved five-year-old corgi, Finley. As we look forward to our wedding day, we are reminded of a beautiful quote by Lao Tzu: "Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage." We are incredibly excited to celebrate this joyous occasion with you, our friends and family, who have been a part of our journey. The rest, as they say, is history.

For Jordan's birthday, Grayson planned a surprise trip to London that was filled with unforgettable moments. The adventure began with Jordan opening a Christmas present for tickets to see "Wicked" the musical on the West End. Despite an unexpected flu that first affected Jordan and then Grayson, the couple made the most of their trip by visiting museums, exploring castles, enjoying tea parties, and eating at many places that Grayson grew up dining at. The highlight of the trip came on January 4, 2024, when Grayson proposed at the enchanting Saint Dunstan in the East Church, a historic site transformed into a beautiful public garden after being destroyed in WWII. The magical moment was captured by a London photographer, and we invite you to view the gallery to experience our engagement for yourself.
