Our Wedding

Callie and Louis met in the hallways of Carl Albert Middle School in 2012! While they were not high school sweethearts, they would meet again while attending college in October of 2021. To make a long story short, they began dating in October of 2022 and have never left each other sides since. Louis asked Callie to marry him on Christmas Day 2024 and she, of course, said yes! The two have a sweet little cat named Rockie and cannot wait for their future together cheering on the New York Giants and the New York Yankees! Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.1st Corinthians 13: 4-8
