We can't wait to celebrate with you! In anticipation of the big day, we have created this wedding website to keep you up to date on all the details of our wedding. Thank God for the Buckeyes .... and Taylor Kirkpatrick {she would start a riot if she didn't get a shoutout}! It was a fall Saturday night in 2018. The bride's roommate (Taylor) invited some of her friends over to watch the game. She ended up inviting Michael over even though he had to grade papers for a class that he was a TA for. O'quilla made fun of him for being a Marine and for the way he held his pen. In true Marine fashion, it piqued his interest. For the next couple of weeks Taylor kept inviting him over to things at the house. On parent’s weekend that fall, he finally came over. Unfortunately parent’s weekend is cursed and the Buckeyes lost the game. To help cope we all went out to a bar. It was a fun night, but ended abruptly when a man in the men’s bathroom puked on Mikey (ask him to tell you the story). The rest of the evening concluded with Taylor giving Mikey her PT’s to wear; PT’s that were 3 sizes too small. The next morning Taylor and O’quilla found Mikey sprawled on the couch with his circulation being cut off from the PT’s. Later that day he asked O’quilla out to lunch. The rest of the story is more of the same. More Buckeyes, good friends, and crazy fun experiences together.
