How We Met

October 2010

While junior year of high school isn't exactly the most exciting place to be, a chance seating arrangement made English class something to look forward to daily for Jack and Kate. They seemed to immediately click and it was as though they had known each other forever. Within just two short weeks of flirtatious conversations, Jack asked the question Kate had been wishing for. On November 2, 2010, Jack and Kate became high school sweethearts. The rest is history!

The Proposal

August 4th, 2017

On August 4th, 2017, Jack wanted to take Kate on a special date entailing a surprise. Jack lead Kate to the Overland Park Arboretum, the location of their first prom pictures. He escorted Kate to the exact spots they had once taken pictures at - nearly seven years prior. At one of the picturesque spots, Jack got down on one knee and proposed to his high school sweetheart. Following the long-awaited question and ever-so-obvious answer, Jack and Kate sat down to a romantic dinner at J. Gilbert's. After dinner, Jack told Kate he had one more place to go for a final surprise, but needed to grab something at their apartment first. Kate requested to stay in the car, but Jack, luckily, convinced Kate to go in with him. Inside, Kate was greeted by Tess, her best friend and Maid of Honor, and her family. They threw a surprise engagement party to celebrate the milestone. It was a fairytale night for Kate, as she now has the pleasure of marrying her best friend!
