Our journey began in 8th grade, when we first met as kids in middle school. Through high school and college, we were the classic on-again, off-again couple--something everyone around us noticed, and something we, too, struggled with. But as much as we hated those in-between moments, it gave us space to grow individually, to figure out who we were, and to discover what we truly wanted in life--and in each other. Fifteen years ago, our story began and it has brought us to this beautiful moment. Today, we are filled with gratitude as we take the next steps to say "I do." We couldn't have reached this milestone without the love and support of our incredible friends and family. Your presence in our lives has meant everything, and we are so excited to celebrate this special chapter with you all. Ours is a story of growth, resilience, and a love that withstood the test of time.
