It was February of 2014, and THE most monumental day of their lives was coming up...the 8th grade dance. Both Abby and Kole were shy, but luckily they were set up by Abby L. It was a slow start for these 13 year olds, seeing each other at school or maybe over the weekend here and there. By the time high school hit Abby and Kole were inseparable.

Time kept moving- school, sports, and part time jobs kept them busy. Regardless of how busy or long the day was Kole and Abby were together. Kole would drive to the Kokalj’s house and make Abby breakfast and drive them to school just to share some time together.

High school flew by, Abby and Kole were ready for the next stage of life and knew they would do it together. Off to Carbondale they went! Lots of fun was had and memories were made. And they rescued their first fur baby, Sammy.

After college they came back to Channahon, they did not last long moving back home. Abby and Kole moved to Morris with their pup. After living together for about 2 years, Kole finally popped the questions in their living room. Which of course was the easiest yes for Abby.

Soon to be Mr. and Mrs. Vaught are thrilled to have you apart of the next chapter of their lives. June 7th, 2025 cannot come soon enough!!!
