In August of 2013, 1,200 college freshman descended on the Creighton University dorms, entering the excitement and chaos of move-in day and Welcome Week. Both from out of state - Bennet from California and Courtney from Kansas - they were anxious and excited to find their way among new people in a new place. It didn't take long, just three days in fact, for their paths to intersect, and that's the journey we're celebrating this May.

After a few years of friendship, the texts became constant, their friend groups would “accidentally” end up in the same places, and they were asked by everyone who knew them a thousand times why they wouldn’t just date already given the visible connection they shared. They gladly obliged.

Over the course of seven years together there have been countless trips between Omaha and Kansas City, dozens of concerts, hundreds of home cooking adventures and who knows how many baguettes and glasses of wine at La Buvette in the Old Market of Omaha. It was there in February that Bennet proposed.

They couldn’t be more ecstatic and blessed to be able to bring friends and family from all corners of the country to Kansas City to celebrate them together.

Thank you so much for considering gifting us something for our new home!
