Ceremony and Reception

Our Wedding

We are thrilled to share our story with you! We met back in 2014 at Lafayette College in statistics class. After several years of being "just friends", we began dating in 2016. After years of laughter, adventures, and love, Grant proposed in 2023, and we embarked on the next chapter of our lives together. We can't wait to see what the future holds! Thank you for being a part of our journey, we are thrilled to celebrate our special day with you! Treasured moments across the years, below
