Our Wedding

Our story starts in the summer of 2020, during the chaos of the first six months of the pandemic. Before we knew anything about COVID, I had been looking forward to my first internship after my sophomore year at Mississippi State. Chloe and I had yet to meet, and I planned on living in Atlanta in the summer of 2020. To my initial regret, my internship in Atlanta was canceled once the pandemic became more serious, leaving me with a decision to make on what to do for the summer. I ultimately decided I would remain in Starkville and work at a local retail store. Chloe also happened to be living in Starkville that summer, as she was the VPR (Vice President of Recruitment) for her Sorority, Pi Beta Phi. Unbeknownst to us, Chloe and I shared several mutual friends, all of whom were also living in Starkville over the summer. These friends are ultimately the reason our paths crossed. Chloe and I met and very quickly went on several dates before deciding to make our relationship “official” in August 2020. Looking back at this time, it amazes me how God’s plan unfolds. I initially did not want to be in Starkville that summer and was upset about losing the internship. But now I know Starkville was exactly where I was supposed to be, and that summer changed my life forever after meeting Chloe. 	Chloe and I quickly became inseparable as we went through our last two years of college together. During these years, our bond and love for one another continued to grow, and we started planning out what we wanted our life to look like post-graduation. I graduated six months before Chloe did and moved back to Birmingham. This period of long distance was one of the most important times in our relationship. It served as an intermission between our college relationship and our working relationship. Long distance can really clarify where your relationship stands, and for me and Chloe, it ultimately strengthened our bond. It taught us how to prioritize one another and to always find intentional time. 	Chloe graduated from Mississippi State in May of 2022 and moved to Birmingham the following August. Marriage was something we had both discussed many times, and we both knew it was what we wanted, but we were unsure of the timing. When Chloe moved to Birmingham, those questions on timing became very clear to me: I wanted to be married. So, from August 2022 to April 2023, I was discreetly thinking and planning when and how I wanted to propose. On April 22, 2023, I asked Chloe to marry me, and to my delight, she said yes! We are so excited to start this next chapter of our lives together, and we cannot wait to see what God has planned for our marriage!
