Perú to I Do

We met over a decade ago in the mountains of Banner Elk, North Carolina, both drawn to Lees-McRae College by paths as different as they were unlikely to cross. And yet, they did. From that moment on, we began an adventure that was nothing short of extraordinary. Over the years, we’ve grown side by side, each following our own passions while navigating the challenges of distance and loss. Along the way, we’ve created unforgettable memories—each one strengthening our relationship. What began as a long-distance relationship fresh out of college has grown into a one-of-a-kind story of true love.

We are overjoyed to celebrate this incredible day with the people who mean the most to us. Having our friends and family by our side as we begin this new chapter fills our hearts with gratitude and excitement. Let’s celebrate love, life, and the start of our forever!
