Our Story

The Wedding Website of Ariel Zdun and Austin Hildebrandt
Although we knew each other from homeroom in high school, it was 4 years later when we finally hung out. It was simple, at his parent's house with most of the family there... Some chit-chat happened, laughter, decided we liked talking to one another, & hung out some more. After about 1 month, Austin asked me to be his girlfriend while at a friend's party. In old childhood friend ways, we were locked in a room until he got the courage to ask - which didn't take long to ask or say yes. We dated for about 1 3/4 a year before he popped the question on our first solo road trip to Indianapolis, Indiana! It was a weekend filled with things we love: good music at an Imagine Dragons concert, yummy food, scootering, thrifting, & one another. Since then we have continued on with our adventures & new encounters including a Duplex renovation towards our 1st home/investment, 2 fur babies - Otis & Willow, promotions in school and work, & more! Thank you for being a part of our journey!
Our first big trip! There are two sayings about Vegas... "Viva Las Vegas" & "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas." Let's just say both are true & we realized we like nature trips more.

Austin's the gamer, but is slowly getting Ariel into it as it's a nice time to connect and play.

Austin bought his first investment property! We both worked hard renovating & decorating our 1st home together. We have learned many things about work, ourselves, & each other through this journey.
