How We Met

May 2015

Our story starts online, where we first noticed each other. Marlie was intrigued by what seemed to be a fun-loving guy with a goofy personality. In time she learned that those assumptions she made were true. Jay liked Marlie's adventurous vibe and how she seemed to know how to have fun. We decided to meet up at Starbucks...and the rest is history.

The Proposal

December 22nd, 2018

We had gone to Lake Keowee to celebrate Christmas with some of Jay's family. Everyone was ushered onto the back porch to "take family pictures". With the beautiful scenery of the lake in the background, Marlie's family surprised her when they came around the corner of the house onto the back porch. As soon as she saw them Jay grabbed Marlie's hand, got down on one knee and started with "Now that everyone is here..." Marlie was speechless, but obviously said YYAASSSSS. Having so many family members there made the moment so special. We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with you!
