Our Wedding

Colton and I met on May 27th 2023, on our first date. At the time he was living in Brownville, NE and drove to Omaha to pick me up at my apartment to take me axe throwing Downtown.   Shortly after the first date, we made it official on June 3, 2023! Colton and I shared many beautiful memories and capturing every minute of them. Colton was a professional at keeping photo albums from the moment we started dating with our polaroid camera.   During the first year we went to many concerts, vacations, and spent every weekend together. After a year and a half of dating, Colton got down on one knee in the beautiful country of Mexico on his family vacation and asked me to be his wife!   Ever since then, we have been on cloud 9 and are so excited to start our forever. We decided that June is a month we hold near and dear to us, so we needed to have our wedding date then as well!   We are beyond thrilled to be able to spend the rest of our lives together and share all of our dreams and goals for our future. Family is important to us, and we can hardly wait to start one of our own and share the love we have for each other with friends and family that have been there to see our love story in real time!
