Kacey and Jacob met at freshman move-in day at Jacksonville University when they moved into their dorm rooms across from each other. From studying for chemistry exams to goofing off with board games, they quickly became inseparable. At the beginning of sophomore year Jacob took Kacey on their first date to see the movie “The World’s End”. Jacob must have known this moment would be significant as he has the ticket stubs saved! After graduating from Jacksonville University, they moved to Miami, Florida. Kacey is studying for her doctorate in microbiology at Miami University and Jacob works as a third-grade elementary school teacher at the Miami Children's Museum Charter School. After eight years together Jacob proposed to Kacey in the Florida Keys following a fun day of snorkeling. They are beyond excited to celebrate their love and commitment to each other with their close family and friends in Charleston, SC on October 2, 2022.
