Jared and Halie’s story began with a single swipe on Hinge. At the time, Jared was returning to his alma mater in Eugene, Oregon to launch his career, while Halie was beginning a new chapter across the country for graduate school. They fell in love quickly and with a rare sense of certainty—both knowing that they had found "the one." Over the next four years, they built a life together: nurturing new friendships, growing in their careers, and dreaming of a shared future. That future became a reality in June 2025, when Jared proposed during a breathtaking trip to Italy. A few months later, ready to be closer to family, they embarked on their biggest adventure yet. With a 15-foot U-Haul and a lot of excitement, Jared drove Halie across the country to their new home in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee. Shortly after settling in, they discovered the perfect wedding venue just down the street. We are so incredibly excited to welcome you to our new home and celebrate the joining of our families!
