10 years ago…. I, Claire, walked into a University of Indianapolis college party and met “Buddy”. And it was not love at first sight.

10 years ago…. I, Buddy, was partying on another Saturday night when I laid eyes on my future wife. And it was love at first sight.

Fast forward 5 years later… through an ongoing group text titled Chips & Dip, we had become great friends. Over the course of a global pandemic I, Claire, decided what’s to lose, I’ll give him a shot. And boy, was I glad.

From there, we had a bit of a ride. Claire adopted the cutest dog to grace the earth, Buddy took a position in Austin, Texas, and we welcomed our baby girl, Naomi Rose.

Now back in the Hoosier state, we’ve settled into our first home. We took a trip to the tropical island of Oahu and exchanged vows in front of our families, promising to love each other forever.

We invite you to join us in celebrating our story!
