Our Wedding

Our LOVE Story

Our love story began in Gulfport, Florida back in 2017. We both were starting our first year of law school at Stetson University College of Law. We met our very first day at Family &amp; Friends Day, before school even started. My mom knew I was nervous about moving to a new state all by myself and wanted to give me a little push in the right direction. She marched right on up to a group of people, with me in tow and started talking. Unbeknownst to everyone there, that day, August 16, 2017, would be the day that we met and started our love story. Study sessions and group beach days soon turned into movie nights and brunch dates and before we knew it, we were officially dating! Law school flew by in the blink of an eye. Between interning in Jacksonville, playing intramural softball, hanging out with law school friends, adopting the cutest (and naughtiest) fur baby, and figuring out what we wanted to do with our lives, the end of law school came quickly. Before we knew it, we were finishing law school and moving to another city to start our lives together. Almost 4 years worth of memories later and we've moved to Saint Augustine, passed the bar and introduced one amazing fur baby into our family. A year and a half ago, JP finally popped the question in Breckenridge, Colorado, Alli's favorite place in the entire world, and I said yes! We can't wait for this exciting new chapter to begin and look forward to celebrating this amazing milestone with every single one of you.

Welcome to our love story....

Things to Do

Anica is not only my younger sister, she is my best friend, my soul mate, my secret keeper and the best maid of honor to ever exist! We grew up moving and traveling all over the world, from playing mermaids in the pool, skiing double black diamonds, and waking up at 4:30 in the morning for swim practice, we have always been best friends. Anica now lives in Castle Rock, Colorado with her amazing boyfriend and adorable puppy and just graduated from law school in May!
