We're Getting Married!

One day, Bailey was scheduled to play during graduate wind ensemble auditions at the University of Louisville. That same day, Joe traveled up from Florida, and took an audition. We were friendly and kind to one and another. We played in the same ensembles, and traveled to Prague which is sort of where our story begins. Bailey and Joe hung out with different groups of people that all ended up at the same location for lunch. We had an incredible trip, where we performed in an incredible palace. As amazing as the trip was, was as difficult as the journey home was. After numerous plane rebookings, a missed flight, and being stuck in the Atlanta Airport, and a 36-hour travel day later...Bailey and Joe found themselves together at the Delta help desk. Where they deliriously got to somewhat know each other. Fast forward a few months later, Bailey and Joe found themselves again at a party. Niether of them wanted to be at this party, but we still went. Bailey walked outside to catch some air where she found Joe, by himself. A true "Beshert" moment. They talked for hours. A few weeks later, Bailey graduated with her Bachelors's degree in French Horn Performance, and Joe graduated with his Master's degree in Wind Conducting. Bailey stayed in Louisville, and Joe made his big move to Melbourne Florida. While Bailey was house sitting her cousin, Sami's home, she sent Joe a text asking how the big move was. After that text, the two chatted almost every single day. Eventually, Joe and Bailey considered the idea of dating. So, once Bailey got her first "big-girl" teacher check, she booked a flight out to visit Joe for the weekend, to see if he was the real deal. Needless to say, they pursued a long-distance relationship. Bailey moved to Melbourne, in June of 2024. Fast forward just a little bit more, we were engaged in Louisville Ky, June 8th 2025.
