Our Wedding

After uneventfully "matching" on Hinge, we quickly realized that we had far more in common than can be expected from connecting in this way. Both of us being from Wilson, NC (well, kind of.....) we instantly recognized the many mutual friends we shared and seemed to effortlessly "skip" multiple of the common steps of a new relationship. With our love of Mexican food (Cantina 18 was the setting of our first date), our families, and the beach, our relationship took off with more ease and naturalness than either of us had ever experienced. Even though we attended different universities, we were fortunate and happy to share many good friends in Raleigh, making it even easier for us to connect and bond with each other. We are excited that you all will be sharing in our big day, and your presence at our wedding ceremony means the world to us. We couldn't have made it this far without the love and support of you, our friends and family, and we look forward to celebrating and beginning our next journey with all of you in September!
