How We Met

Modern Romance

Jordan and I met like any true modern day romance--online! Our first date was in the summer of 2019 at Bar Louie in St. Charles. The date was great, however, Jordan and I are totally opposite in the love industry. I am not one to "fall" fast and it took me a few months before I would even go on a second date! Thankfully, he is so persistent and patient and we got that second date and the rest is history.

The Proposal

You Know I Love You, Right?

In 2020 I became interested in backpacking and planned out a summer trip in Virginia. I was planning to be gone for 7 weeks, and Jordan was planning to propose at the end of my trip. After two weeks on the trail, I called Jordan to tell him I was finished hiking and I was ready for him to come pick me up. He told me to keep going until the weekend and he could come get me. He quickly called the jeweler, got the ring, and drove the 10 hours to pick me up in Virginia. When he arrived, Jordan said he wanted to see some of the Appalachian Trail and I had just been to an amazing spot earlier that week that we could hike to. On our drive there, I was complaining about hiking another 8 miles (my feet were really blistered) and he turned off the GPS and was about to turn around. I told him I could make it and it was something I wanted him to see. It was a tough hike up, but well worth it! When we got to the top of McAfee Knob Jordan found someone to take our picture. He told her he was going to propose and she responded, "shut up!". We walked out near the edge of the cliff and Jordan said, "You know I love you, right?" as he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. That will forever be the best hike I'll ever take.
