Jake and Kiley's paths crossed many times throughout high school, but it wasn't until senior year that we grew closer and began dating. Since then, we have been by each other's sides through all that life has had to offer, from experiencing Purdue together, to an internship in DC for Jake and graduate school at Northwestern for Kiley. Together we have traveled to Disney, St. Martin, London, and more. Our big and small moments have eventually led us to where we are now, our new home together in Durham, NC. Now we are establishing our careers as young professionals and preparing to spend our lives together as husband and wife, looking forward to the next chapter of big and small moments.

The summer of 2021 was a big one for Kiley and Jake. Kiley made the official move to North Carolina following Jake who had moved the year before to begin at Blue Cross Blue Shield NC. Shortly before the move, Kiley was offered a job at Duke University which Jake took as an opportunity for the perfect surprise. Disguised as a celebration of Kiley's new job and 5 and a half years together, Jake planned a date to the Duke Gardens with dinner to follow. While roaming the gardens, Jake popped the question, and Kiley said YES!

We are so excited to celebrate our marriage in our new home of North Carolina with our family and friends!
