Welcome to our wedding website. We can't wait to celebrate our special day with you!

We met at a local dive bar with all of his friends present. #awkwardgroupdate Then, after a week of no contact, we met up again at a bonfire where we smoked all his friends in a game of Catch Phrase. And it just clicked. Somewhere in the middle of guessing the words "baseball bat" and "Christmas carolers," we both thought "Okay. This could be something."

At Hotel Vandivort in Springfield, Nate told Kristen to find him before the ball dropped. It was New Year's Eve 2016 and there were tons of people ringing in the new year. He did not disappoint, and after a very eloquent (and nervous) speech, Nate professed his love to Kristen as midnight fell and 2017 began. A very excited (and very awkward) Kristen proceeded to announce to everyone she encountered thereafter, "My boyfriend just told me he loves me!"

Nate planned a random hiking trip to Arkansas during his spring break from teaching. On the first night, during a sunset hike, Nate got down on one knee and asked Kristen to marry him. It was a beautiful moment at the most beautiful bluff overlooking the Boston mountains.
