The Day After

Our Wedding

Jack and Allie met in January of 2017 when they were seated next to each other at work in downtown Chicago. After getting to know each other, they quickly became friends. Their friendship grew to attraction and 3 months later when discussing if they should date, Allie was nervous it would ruin their relationship as friends and colleagues. She asked, "what if it doesn't work out?" to which Jack replied, "but what if it does?" Six years later, they were engaged in the city that brought them together. Jack proposed in the same spot where they made their relationship official back in 2017. Jack and Allie have lived in both Chicago and San Diego throughout their relationship and have enjoyed what each city has to offer - new friends, new adventures, new jobs, and of course the time spent with each other. Their favorite things to do are listen to live music, go for walks, try out new restaurants, play games (ask who's better at Yahtzee), and just laugh with each other. They could not be more excited to celebrate their special day with the people that mean the most to them!
