Hello! Welcome to our Wedding Website! Thank you so much for being a part of our special day!

I was born to my father Theodore and wonderful mother Cynthia on August 24th, 1994 in Loganville, GA. In the next 20 years my parents gave me eight siblings and moved us 4 times. My fourth move was to Iowa in 2005 and let me tell you, the next 12 years of my life were unbelievably hard for me. I spent many years alone and angry. I had friends come and go, betray me and cut me deep. My faith in God was never strong. I couldn't understand why He would let me go through all this until I met Jared. God was trying to teach me to trust Himself more than the people around me. To be hurt by the wrong guy to bring me to the right one. It took me a few years into our relationship for me to realize that though. So, the end of 2014 I met Jared....and our story together began...

I was born May 8th, 1994 in Charleston, West Virginia to my parents Billie Jo VanMeter and James Roush. 5 years later they gave me a sister named Bethany. Life had a lot of ups and downs but the biggest thing was when my parents got divorced. It was one of the hardest times I've been through. God gave me Ariana at the perfect time right before them divorcing. A year after that my mom meet Gary, a wonderful man who has since become my stepdad. He became the father figure I needed in my life.

We had talked briefly off and on since 2013 through a mutual friend online. It wasn't until the end of 2014 when we were both in bad places that we really started talking and getting to know each other more, again online. On December 7th, 2014 Jared asked Ariana if she would like to be together and start dating. At the time, Ariana lived in Iowa and Jared lived in West Virginia, 685 miles from each other. In June 2015 Jared drove to Iowa to meet Ariana and her family for the first time in person. Ariana went to meet Jared's family Christmas 2015. Jared came to visit again in March of 2016 to ask Ariana's father for his blessing to date her even though we had been together since December 2014. When we first started talking neither one of us thought anything more would ever happen. God certainly has a way of bringing His people exactly what they need when they need it. We will have spent 1708 days apart. On August 10th, 2019 we will spend the rest of our days together.
