Our Story Our journey started way back in middle school, where we first crossed paths and became familiar faces in each other's lives. It wasn’t until high school that we really caught each other's eye—but life had other plans, and years went by before fate stepped back in. A single DM from Jacob to Stephanie rekindled the spark, and everything just clicked. From the moment we started talking again, it felt like coming home. Early dates were filled with golf swings, holiday parties, and blending the people we love—our friends and families—into one big circle. But the heart of this story is Leo, Stephanie’s son and the glue that holds us all together. His stamp of approval meant everything. And once it was the three of us, it just made sense. We were already a family in every way that matters. So, Jacob made it official—one thoughtful proposal, a big “yes,” and here we are: getting ready to say “I do,” surrounded by love, laughter, and everyone who’s been part of our story.
