Charlie and Olivia first met in the winter of 2022 on a snowmobiling trip. What Olivia expected to be a fun weekend with her family quickly turned into something more when her cousin Nolan brought along his friend, Charlie. From the very beginning, there was an undeniable spark. They went on a few dates, but as college life pulled them in different directions, they stayed connected as friends—never quite losing the special bond they had formed. That summer, Olivia made the decision to transfer to the University of St. Thomas to be closer to home. By the following fall, their paths aligned once again, and this time, everything fell into place. Their connection deepened effortlessly, and before long, they had become not only partners, but best friends—unable to imagine life without one another. Together, they inspire each other, encourage each other’s dreams, and bring out the very best in one another every day. When Olivia graduated in May of 2025, Charlie knew the moment had come. He proposed during a cherished family trip—one Olivia had taken nearly every summer since she was a baby. Surrounded by her parents, siblings, and loved ones, it was a moment as meaningful as it was unforgettable. Since then, they’ve built a beautiful life together—purchasing their first home and rescuing their dog, Goose. Now, they are overjoyed to begin this next chapter, filled with love, laughter, and unwavering support. It feels only fitting that they celebrate their love with a winter wedding, surrounded by the people who mean the most to them.
