We met in High School in 1998 and became great friends. Chris went away to college then moved to LA. Michelle stayed in Germantown Hills. We would reconnect in IL mainly at Christmas and maintained our friendship. After living our separate lives for far too long, we started to date long distance. Michelle moved herself and Hailey to LA and that began our lives together. The rest is history...and the best is yet to come.
We decided to get married in a small villa outside of Florence, Italy in the beautiful hills of Tuscany. We will get married June 5, 2019. The week before the wedding we will travel to Rome and Florence with Hailey (plus any friends and family who would like to join). Then we travel to Cinque Terre, Venice, and Santorini (Greece) on our honeymoon. Once we are done abroad we will fly into Peoria to celebrate with all of our friends and family!! Our reception will be at Two25 on Saturday June 22nd. We can’t wait to see everyone and celebrate that we are FINALLY getting married!
