Welcome to our wedding website We can’t wait to celebrate with you and are so thankful you stoped by our Wedding website. So thankful to have each of you in our lives!

When you’re young everyone is always asking “what do you want to be when you grow up”? “What are your dreams?” “What do you want your future to look like?” When I was little my school had us come dressed in what we wanted to be when we got older….Doctors, Astronauts, Veterinarians, Fashion Designer, Dancer and out of all the kids I wanted to be a mom. But growing up I was never the little girl dreaming of her wedding or chasing after all the boys like my other friends. The thought never really crossed my mind. I was always somewhere in the corner of a room with my notebook and pen. Writing stories, drawing pictures, outside, and just in my own little world. As I got older around 14 maybe, the idea of marriage didn’t seem appealing to me. I didn’t see it as a beautiful thing anymore. I wanted to live my life “free” traveling around in a van somewhere across the states. Which that’s another story in itself haha. But my mom always told me that would change as soon as the right one came along. I’d always roll my eyes like she was crazy. We weren’t raised to date around but taught and raised to walk in purity and in holiness. That God had created the perfect person for us. And soon enough… July 11, 2020 I became the luckiest girl in the world without even knowing it. I wasn’t looking for love. I wasn't looking for anything when it happened. And it really did just “happen”. It happened in God's timing and how He planned it! I’m still in awe of the story being written. All I know is I didn't want a relationship. I was happy and content with my life. Until I wasn't. But he walked right into my heart like he had always been there.

One of my friends was at a conference the first weekend of July and was telling me about this guy that was leading worship there and how she thought he’d be perfect for me. I honestly was like yeeeah no, you’re crazy loll. She was asking me to reach out and send him a message and I was like nope that’s never happening. Went back and forth with her on that for a bit actually. My first thought when she sent me his Instagram was “bro he’s like at least in his 20’s…I just turned 17 and he’s not my type”. 😂 And then July 11, 2020 one reply to an instagram story led to the most beautiful friendship I’ve ever had. It was simple and sweet. Just sharing our hearts with each other and our love for music and the Lord. From deep conversations to the most random loll. It was always fun and uplifting. And that’s how it was. He was always encouraging me and lifting me higher spirituality and the connection just grew. He was the biggest part of my Summer. Really didn’t think much of it at first and then slowly after the first month or so of talking I realized that the guy who had become one of my best friends was someone I started to fall for. My mom read every text and my parents knew about him from the beginning. We talked all day every day and met for the first time on January 16th, 2021. I knew I liked him but the first time seeing him face to face, I knew he was the person that Yahweh created me to be with. No doubt in my mind! 2021 was a long on and off year to say the least loll. I personally, looking back know that I wasn’t ready for a relationship in any way. My relationship with God wasn’t the best and I wasn’t mature in many areas even though I thought I was. The first few months of 2021 were nothing short of amazing. We got to see each other a few times and then he and his family came to my graduation in Florida. He visited us a few times and we went and spent Sukkot with them… Fast forward….We stayed pure but weren’t following the boundaries and guidelines that were set in place by our parents. So at the end of 2021 we were completely separated with no communication. Not really knowing if we would ever talk again or what would happen with us. But we definitely needed that time to completely get back in alignment with Yahweh and grow in all the areas we were lacking in. January 2022 I got on a flight to Kansas City, Missouri to be a part of a discipleship training program called YWAM or Youth With A Mission. Honestly the most eye opening season of my life. Yahweh really pulled me back to Him in such a loving and gentle way. The whole year of 2022 God really got me to a place where, at the end of the day, if I had no one, or had nothing. If nothing ever came of Coleman and I after this whole year, would I be okay with just having Him. To be completely honest in 2021 I would've said no, because I didn't know how to be content. Because when things got hard I wouldn't fall back on God. But the more I was put in situations where it was just me and Him, the more that’s all I wanted and I was finally okay with it all. My flesh didn’t like it at all but my spirit could rest in that. Throughout my time in YWAM I prayed for confirmations about Coleman and Yahwehs plan for my life and He answered so LOUD. The time came for me to go home, so my mom and sisters drove to pick me up. We made one last stop in the prayer room to sit and pray and receive a prophetic word. The one I received was so spot on you couldn’t even make it up. I knew everything was going to work out in His timing. I'll kinda fast forward through this part. We went to Revive (a conference) and I wasn't sure what was going to come of it all. We got to see each other and talk somewhat but we were both still unsure of what would happen when we left but were more than sure it would all be okay. The whole year we were apart we remained faithful to each other and never wavered.

The confirmations we got separately in that year and that each of our parents had gotten in the months leading up to us coming back together, I'm still in awe of. Yahweh is so very faithful and everything happens in His timing and it’s beautiful to look back on and see His hand in every moment. In every moment we were hurting, didn’t understand, couldn’t see a way. He was working. Working on us so that when we came back together we would be bringing Him glory. ……………………………………………………. Each second felt like a day and each day felt like a week. Weeks turned into months, which turned into a year. Waiting felt like forever, but that's how long I’d wait. Forever. Because what we have now was worth every second apart. God is so very faithful to work everything out for our good. However, there are things I would want to change looking back. But I have no control over the past so looking back doesn't help moving forward. There's a peace that comes with surrender, and it’s beautiful. Every step of the way is always an adventure we get to face together! And here I am after everything, fixing to marry my best friend. Coleman received my Dad’s blessing to propose. So, on February 9th surrounded by our families, he proposed! I can’t even explain the excitement. And now we’re knee deep in wedding planning loll. So, "What are my dreams?" "What do I want my future to look like?" Him. My today and all of my tomorrows…Growing and learning and building a life together and raising a family with hearts on fire for the Lord and His Kingdom. Every second has been worth the wait. So wait on the Lord. Trust His perfect timing. Because you may not see it now, but His promise for the plan He has for you is worth every ounce of obedience.
