We met where all truly great love stories begin - The Neon Cactus at Purdue University. Sam had only been out one Thursday since school had started that fall and it was Megan's first night out since her senior soccer season ended. We both played soccer at Purdue for four years (five for Sam) and our paths had never crossed. That night, a mutual friend casually introduced us to each other and unknowingly our lives had changed forever. We have now known each other for for more than 1,500 days and we haven't gone a single day without talking. Ironically, as our soccer careers were coming to an end our life together had just begun.

Talk about a lot of planning... We will be moving to Oxford, England shortly after our wedding! We hope that during our reception we'll be able to celebrate our marriage as well as all of the great memories and moments we've shared with everyone. Even though we'll only be away for a few years, the quality time with our closest friends and family is without question what we'll miss the most. If you ever find yourself in England know that we have an extra bed and some Arsenal tickets for you.
