For Karley and Spencer, in the Fall of 2015, everything changed. Spencer was finishing up with pharmacy school at the University of Florida and moving to a town where he knew no one. Karley was moving back to St Pete after attending Florida Atlantic University to be closer to family. To meet new friends, in a new city, Spencer joined a bowling team as a sure-fire way to meet guy friends that would welcome him to his new home and introduce him to the St Pete way of life. Little did they know that Spencer would be placed at random onto Karley’s bowling team with her mom and best friends which her parents involuntarily signed her up for only months beforehand. From that point on, a very close friendship developed.
They found themselves spending weekends at the beach, working on projects together around Spencer’s first home in St. Pete and made discoveries like their mutual love of music, whiskey and watching ABC’s “The Bachelor”. They were inseparable, and after years of knowing they belonged together, they finally went on their first official date, a Walk the Moon concert at Jannus Live. The rest, is history.
