It was in 2020 when we first stumbled across each other at a friend's house, and later reconnected in the hallways at school. What began as a lighthearted high school crush quickly grew into something deeper. Over the past five years, we have not only grown up together -- we have learned how to love each other the way that the Lord intends for us to. We have loved and supported each other through the good, the bad, and everything in-between. On May 31st, 2025, just a few months after celebrating our five-year anniversary, Kort asked to spend forever together while we were traveling in Italy. On June 20th, 2026, we will become husband and wife and celebrate the beginning of our forever with the people who mean the most to us.
