How we met

It all started with two climbers working at a brand new climbing gym. It was not love at first sight, sorry to say. However, it was a love that formed from a friendship. From an offer of a car ride to go climb with a group of friends, to becoming climbing partners and hiking together, we shared laughs and fun conversations. Little did we know, that those moments would lead us here to sharing our lives with each other and now with all of you! Our first date was at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science. We are both huge nerds and found that we enjoyed being in each other's company. We realized we had so much in common, and the conversation never stopped. That is, until the museum closed. We both agreed that we didn’t want the date to end so we went out for vegan sushi and continued to have the first of many more amazing dates. Over the years, we’ve traveled, adventured, cooked delicious food, binge-watched countless shows, and played board games and video games together. Every step of the way, we’ve grown together, learned from each other, and shared a love that keeps growing stronger everyday. On September 28th 2024, in Frisco, Colorado at Lily Pad Lake, John popped the question in one of our most loved places. It was a beautiful day with the leaves changing and it was surprisingly warm for late September. We had our dog Chloe with us and it was one of the most intimate, romantic, unexpected, and perfectly planned proposals. We had walked around the lake admiring the colors and taking in the warm day when John pulled Jordan to a quieter part of the lake and got down on one knee and asked her to marry him. Jordan said yes! Smiling ear to ear. It was a moment we’ll never forget and one that marked the beginning of this exciting next chapter. We’re so excited to celebrate our wedding day with you, our closest friends and family. It’s the start of our forever, and we’re thrilled to have you by our side for this unforgettable journey.
