It all started thanks to two amazing friends—Anna and Hayli—who had a feeling they'd make a great match. Turns out, they were right. With a little encouragement (and maybe a little matchmaking magic), they got to know each other and quickly realized how easy and fun it was just to be together.

From cheering Peyton on at Marian football games to late-night drives with country music, the two started building memories that felt like something really special. Whether they're dancing at a concert or relaxing by the lake where Alivia’s family camps each summer, they've found that the simple things are their favorite—especially when they're doing them together.

Through it all, they've shared laughter, adventure, and a whole lot of memories. They are so thankful for the people who brought them together (looking at you, Anna and Hayli!) and for the love that’s grown since that very first hello.

Now, they can’t wait to say “I do” and start the next chapter of their story—side by side.
