We met during our senior year of high school, while Meredith was in North Carolina for college visits. Meredith's best friend, Nora (maid of honor), introduced the two of us, and we instantly knew we were meant for each other. We spent our college years supporting each other's studies and career goals, traveling to many fun destinations, and making lifelong friends together. Along with our families, Jake planned a trip to Meredith's favorite city, Paris, for a surprise proposal a few months before our college graduation. Since then, we have established our careers and adopted our dog, Ozzy, together. We cannot wait for this new chapter of our lives and are so excited to celebrate with you all!
