Our Wedding

High School Sweethearts

<p>Our story goes way way back, all the way back to 2018. Although we did not become friends until then, we were still present in each others lives from a very early age. To make a very long story short, our friendship began in high school our junior and senior year. We were in the same math class and instantly connected. Amber actually reached out to Daniel first on Snapchat asking if he was going to coach powder puff, the girls football game they did every year. We began talking everyday. Some time goes by, and Daniels asks to take Amber to the SAT testing session they just happen to have signed up for at the same time. After the test, they went to Chickfila to eat lunch and Daniel says "so are you my girlfriend now?" and the rest is history. To this day, the butterflies, the excitement, and happiness continues to grow every single day.</p>

I’m Ashley, Amber’s other older sister! I’m a theatre artist, choreographer, and project manager in Atlanta. For seven years, I have had the honor of watching Amber and Daniel grow in so many ways and most significantly grow in love with one another. I am absolutely honored to stand by them as they make their vows!

Hi! I’m Angela, Amber’s biggest sister. I live in Atlanta, GA with my wife and four pets.
I’ve known Amber since the literal day she was born. I’ve watched her grow into the woman she is today. I haven’t known Daniel quite as long, but I have seen his evolution as well. It is such a blessing to be able to witness these two grow in partnership with each other. They truly are a team. I am beyond excited to be sharing this special day with them!

Hi! I’m Caroline — I met Amber through our sorority at App State, and she’s been one of my closest friends ever since. I have loved making memories with her and Daniel over the years, and I can’t wait to celebrate them as they start this next chapter together!

Amber and I met during my freshman year of college when we had both just joined the same sorority. In true Amber fashion, she texted me out of the blue asking if I wanted to get Starbucks because she’d decided we were going to be friends, and she was right. That’s also when I met Daniel, and from the beginning I could feel the love they shared with each other and the people around them.
Not long after, Amber became my college roommate, my favorite roommate. (With dolly not far behind) The three of us took on Boone together, with Daniel always around to provide comedic relief and handle the resident boyfriend duties around the apartment. Some of my favorite memories are the simple ones: sitting on the couch eating a late dinner while Amber and Daniel were already on to dessert, laughing at Daniel’s jokes, and feeling the warmth these two bring into every room.
I’m so grateful for the years we’ve shared and so excited to stand by their side on their wedding day. Cheers to my best college roommate and our apartment’s unofficial roommate (soon to be husband!)

Hi everyone! My name is Kathryn and I currently live in Jacksonville, FL with my husband, dog and new daughter!
I met Amber in 2020 through ADPi. I got paired with Amber to be her buddy and we instantly clicked. Amber was like the little sister I never had. From there, she became my grand little and the family and we were inseparable. If you saw me, you could see Amber with me. While getting to know Amber, obviously I met Daniel. He was a bit shy but we quickly got to know each other and he became like a brother to me. I am continuously thanking God for bringing such special people into my life. Amber and Daniel are a power couple and everyone wants a love like theirs. I am so blessed and honored to know them, to love them and to stand by their side on one of the biggest days. Can’t wait to celebrate BIG 💗

Hi! I’m Julia! I actually met amber and Daniel on the same night, the week we all moved into our dorms freshman year. Since then, the both of them have been two of my very best friends. We’ve been by each others side through every big life moment since and all of the small ones in between. I’m truly so grateful for their friendship and the memories we continue to make together. ( from Daniel saving me when I got a flat tire to amber sending my now husband a photo of the dress I was planning to wear the day he was going to propose ) I can’t wait to watch them embark on this next chapter together as husband and wife. *if you see my crying the entire wedding day, mind ya business ;) *
