What began as a simple friendship quickly grew into something truly special. There came a moment when “just friends” no longer felt strong enough, and in the summer of 2018, Luke asked me to be his girlfriend. Seven years later, in the summer of 2025, he asked me to be his wife—and I couldn’t ask for a more perfect partner to spend forever with.

Since then, we’ve shared so many of life’s firsts—graduations, college, our first home together—and countless everyday moments that have turned into the sweetest memories. Living life side by side has been the greatest gift, and through every change, our love has only grown deeper. We feel so lucky to have found something so real, so early, and we can’t wait to begin this next chapter surrounded by all the people we love.
