Tying the Knot!

It all started under the stars—literally. Jillian and Mike met while paddle boarding through glowing bioluminescence in Titusville in August 2023. Sparks were flying (or maybe it was just the glowing algae), and a few days later they were off on an impromptu trip to Mexico… because, why not? From that point on, adventure became their love language. Whether it’s scuba diving, freediving, paddle boarding, exploring new trails, or planning their next big trip, these two are always on the move—with their trusty sidekick Ollie (the world’s best snuggle pup) never far behind. They’ve made memories across Mexico (more than once!), the Grand Canyon, Las Vegas, New York City, Denver, Michigan, California, and most recently, a Mediterranean dream trip. It was during this July 2025 adventure—at the breathtaking Temple of Poseidon in Greece—that Mike got down on one knee at sunset and asked Jillian to be his forever travel buddy. (Spoiler alert: she said YES!) Now they’re gearing up for the biggest adventure yet—marriage! And they can’t wait to celebrate with all the people they love most.
