Our Wedding

Clarke grew up in Jackson, Mississippi, before attending the University of Alabama and later Rice University in Houston for graduate school. Christian was raised in Houston, Texas, and went on to study at Baylor University before completing graduate school at California Polytechnic State University. After moving back to Houston, Christian was introduced to Clarke through his lifelong best friend. St. Luke’s United Methodist Church in Houston became an important part of their journey together, so much so that Christian proposed to Clarke in front of the St. Luke’s chapel on August 30, 2025. Now, they are overjoyed to be celebrating their marriage in Jackson, Mississippi, at Galloway Memorial United Methodist Church, the same church where Clarke’s parents and grandparents were married, continuing a family tradition of growth and love through faith.
