Our Wedding

From the Top 

Our journey began in Maryville, Missouri—fittingly, the same place where we’ll be celebrating our wedding with all of you. We met in 2017 during our freshman year at Northwest Missouri State University, introduced by mutual friends. From the beginning, we made the most of our college years—cheering and cheers-ing on the Bearcats, Chiefs, and Royals. We've enjoyed hosting unforgettable gatherings at the Peach House and Babe Cave, spring breaks trips with friends, summers interning, fishing adventures, and countless time traveling to enjoy friends and family. Our time at Northwest holds some of our most cherished memories. After graduating in 2020, we both started new chapters in Iowa. As we settled into post-college life and full-time jobs, Emma brought home a new addition to our little family—Jax, our sweet and spicy pup who’s been keeping us on our toes ever since. Together, we’ve embraced life’s adventures, celebrating each milestone—big and small. From learning to navigate adulting together, apartment moves, a master’s graduation, visits to the Mayo Clinic, once in a lifetime travels, and most recently buying our first home—we’ve built a life full of love, belly laughs, and unforgettable memories. We can’t wait to start this next chapter with all of you by our side!
