Ceremony and Reception

Our Wedding

We first met in a middle school history class. What started as friendship and a young relationship soon blossomed into a high school romance. We learned how to grow together, navigating teenage years side by side, learning what it meant to love and support one another. After high school, we faced the challenges of a long-distance relationship during college, as we each pursued our dreams, changed career paths, and grew individually. Even with the distance, our bond only strengthened, rooted in our shared faith and a deep, unshakable friendship. A year before Bethany's graduation, in a moment that felt like a culmination of everything we’d been through together, Kyle got down on one knee and asked the most important question of our lives. We’ve journeyed through life as partners, growing in love and trust, and we’ve always known we’re kindred spirits. We are blessed for God to have placed us in each other's paths so early in life. As we begin this new chapter, we are filled with excitement, joy, and gratitude for the road ahead.
