Our Wedding

Online Dating Success

Spencer and Chloe met in the classic 21st-century way...online. They began bonding almost immediately based on each other's taste in music. They then began seeing each other, often playing each other's favorite albums and watching each other's favorite shows, blossoming into a relationship beginning in October 2022. Since then, they have adopted three cats, Gypsy, Aang, &amp; Gandalf, and a lovely dog, Drekker, to build their little family. They currently reside in Fargo, ND, but love to travel and explore the country... and stop at a brewery or two along the way.
