On May 17th, we stood before the Lord and entered into a covenant of marriage, surrounded by our closest family and friends. The ceremony was especially meaningful with Aaron Gray, the father of the bride, as our officiant — a moment we’ll always treasure. We got married at a beautiful cabin in the Smoky Mountains, a place that holds special significance for us as it was where we took our first trip together, just the two of us. Though storms rolled through the night before, the day brought clear skies and warm sunshine — a beautiful reminder of God’s presence. During dinner, we shared communion and were prayed over by our guests. We feel deeply grateful to have begun our marriage surrounded by people rooted in faith who helped make the day so sacred and full of joy.

When deciding where post-grad life would take us, we felt led to Nashville. With no job offers and no home, we chose to trust what the Lord had placed on our hearts. In just a few months, we both received incredible job opportunities and found the place we now call home. It was such a joy to see how God provided — guiding our steps and revealing His plans in His perfect timing. Exactly one week after getting married in the Smoky Mountains, we packed up moved to Nashville. Since then, we've only just begun to discover all that Nashville has to offer — from the CMA Fest to new disc golf courses, we’ve truly loved exploring this new season together.
