Our Story

Our story began back in 2019 at Central Michigan University, where we met for the first time during our college years. Neither of us could have guessed that moment would lead us here.
After a few years of friendship—and a lot of “almost” moments—we finally made it official in 2022 and began our love story.
We spent our first few years together in Grand Rapids, building a life full of laughter, weekend adventures, and cozy nights with our cat, Stretch. Eventually, we headed north to beautiful Traverse City, where we’ve been savoring lakeside views and this joyful season of being engaged.
In December of 2024, surrounded by winter lights and holiday magic, we got engaged—and now, with Stretch’s approval, we can’t wait to celebrate our forever surrounded by family and friends.
