Let's Talk About Us

Our Story

For years, we were those flirty best friends who everyone else suspected might end up together — and honestly, they weren’t wrong. We’ve always cared deeply for each other, and after years of friendship, countless inside jokes, and way too many late-night post-shift conversations at Huey's, we finally made it official about three and a half years ago. Since then, we’ve had so much fun — from concerts and road trips to spontaneous adventures and lazy weekends. We love spending time with our family and friends, but we also just love living life together. Whether we’re out exploring or doing absolutely nothing, we’re at our best when we’re side by side. Looking back, it feels like we grew up side by side. And now, we get to grow old together — and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

The Proposal

6 - 22 - 25

The proposal was romantic and special. One Sunday morning, Josh asked if we could grab brunch. We were “early” to the reservation (he planned that part), so we went for a walk around the lake at Shelby Farms. As we walked and talked, he started falling a little behind me - and when I turned around, he was on one knee. Josh asked me to be his wife, and I couldn’t say yes fast enough. We celebrated at Costal, just the two of us. Then, we spent the rest of the day running around Memphis sharing the news with our people. It was perfect!

Our Favorite Day

4 - 25 - 26

We are so excited to celebrate our love with all the people who mean the most to us! Join us for a night full of good food, dancing, laughter and love! We can’t wait to make unforgettable memories together — and we’re so grateful to have you by our side as we start this next chapter. Let’s party!
