Erin decided to join the play as a student director in her sophomore year, not knowing what it was all about but that her friends loved it. The following year, Joe decided to take a leap and encourage his fellow football players to help the drama club in their role as chimney sweeps in Mary Poppins, 2016! The stage crew made plans to go out to SoBol after practice one day, but then they all bailed. Joe asked Erin if she still wanted to go with him, she said yes, and the rest was history! They clicked right away and went on their very first date on March 10, 2016. Fast forward almost 9 years later, they are so excited to be engaged and celebrate their love together with you all.
