Kory and Rayana have known each other their entire lives. As we grew up, the connection deepened. In middle school, we really got to know each other. Kory and his family spent weekends at the same campground where Rayana’s grandparents, Diane and Mike, camped. It was here that we spent countless weekends, building a friendship that would last a lifetime. We also shared a love for showing cattle at the Van Wert County Fair, where we spent many days together. Years went by, and our friendship blossomed into something more. After years of being best friends, we decided to give dating a shot, and the rest, as they say, is history. From that moment on, we became inseparable. High school sweethearts and the best of friends. As we step into this new chapter as husband and wife, we are filled with gratitude for the journey we’ve shared and excitement for the future that awaits us. Through every season of life, we’ve known deep down that we’ve been soulmates all along.
