Justin messaged Brooke asking her to be on his intramural volleyball team. Brooke agreed, they played on the same team together for a few weeks. Eventually they started seeing each other around campus. Justin worked in the same building Brooke had most of her classes! Once they figured that out, they would eat lunch together everyday. From there, they would watch movies together with another one of their friends after a night of volleyball.
Justin asked Brooke on a date the day before winter break in 2019. The rest is history.
Justin joined the army. They were not able to talk to each other for 2.5 months while Justin was in Basic training. Since it was during COVID, they were not able to see each other for 4 months until Justin got out for winter break. After that, it was another 5 months before they were able to see each other again while he was in AIT.
Justin got stationed in Washington state... as far away from Florida as possible. They made an effort to visit each other almost every month. When Brooke would visit Justin, they would go on all sorts of hikes and other adventures. Pictures from these can be seen throughout the website and will make an appearance throughout the wedding festivities.
After almost 4 years of long distance, Brooke graduated college, and they moved in together! They are ready for their next adventures and to see what life holds for them.
