Picture this, Madison Memorial parking lot, a bunch of young awkward soon to be high school kids enjoying our last few days of summer. This where we met, just two kids hanging out with friends of friends totally unaware of the life that is about to begin. What started as a little crush quickly became a best friendship built on laughter, inside jokes and pure joy in each other's company. By senior year we knew what we had was something special and worth holding onto.

Now the hard part, college. Being two driven teenagers we both had different goals that would take us miles and states apart. We supported each other through every moment using those long weekends or holiday breaks to soak up as much time together as possible. As the years went our friendship deepened and our love grew.

Over ten years later and another chapter has began. As Illyanna headed to graduate school in Georgia, Travis began building a life and career that would support the future we dreamed of together. Then in 2024, we get to the fountain, at Forsyth Park in Savannah, GA. Travis got down on one knee and asked if I would spend the rest of my life with him. As if I planned to do anything else- I said yes!

And now, here we are. Counting down the days until the wedding, moving into our first home together, and stepping fully into the careers we've worked so hard for. We cannot believe we'll be celebrating 15 years of love, laughter and friendship by saying "I do". See you there!
