Plainwell, MI

11 Years, 2 Kids, and a Whole Lot of Love

Our story began at work—where romance definitely never happens :) Kimberly stopped by on her day off to check her schedule, and that’s when she saw Terry for the first time. Cue dramatic slow-motion moment. She froze, completely mesmerized by his piercing blue eyes and that ridiculously cute smile. Meanwhile, Terry had his own moment of awe because Kimberly was absolutely stunning in a dress that is now permanently seared into his memory. The connection was instant, but timing was… complicated. So, they did what any two people with undeniable chemistry would do—they became friends. Flirty friends. Friends who found every excuse to hang out, from parties to horror movie marathons. The spark never faded, and in January 2014, the stars aligned, and they made it official. From there, things moved fast. They moved in together, blinked, and—boom!—Edison arrived. Parenthood didn’t slow them down too much, though. Friday night game nights with friends were a staple, and life was filled with fun and chaos in equal parts. Then, deciding one tiny human wasn’t quite enough, they welcomed Sebastian in 2019. Since then, they’ve settled into their home, built a life full of adventure, and somehow managed to keep having fun while juggling kids, careers, and dreams. Through all the ups and downs, one thing has never changed—they’re in this together. And after 11 years of love, laughter, and a little bit of madness, they’re finally making it official. It’s about time, right?
