We're Getting Married at the zoo!

We ironically went to the exact same high school and were in the same graduating class in 2013. We definitely knew each other but did not fall into the same friend group. Jacob left Waverly to attend school in San Diego and Aftin went off to swim at the University of Northern Iowa. Jacob graduated with his undergraduate degree in three years and decided to do an accounting masters program at the University of Northern Iowa where Aftin was finishing up her last year. During the winter break, their close friend Emma Rathe was having a New Years party at her house that both of us wanted to attend. While at the party we started talking and by the end of the night/early morning, we had set a date for the following day.

We were going on a trip to Georgia for a fun little getaway with our dog. We had planned to go to the Aquarium, hiking, take a train ride, go shopping, and more. On the second day of our trip, we decided to go on a hike to a close by waterfall. When we got to the waterfall, we set up our tripod camera and Jacob held on to the remote. We took some pictures together and then started to leave. Jacob then got down on one knee and ask the question!

*** We are asking that if you attend, you either come vaccinated or get a negative COVID test prior to arriving. We would love to have all our family and friends present and safe. Thank you for understanding!***
