Ella and Noah met on Christmas Eve of 2023 at Bobby McGee’s. They met through a mutual friend and quickly started spending more time together watching movies and having bonfires. Neither of them thought they were in any position to start a new relationship; however, they quickly realized the good they do for each other.

What really sealed the deal was their trip to Nashville with two of their coworkers in March of 2024. Ella met his family and they learned a lot about each other. Since then, Ella and Noah have had several other adventures whether it be to their favorite spots around town, Chicago, Ruoff Music Center, and more!

In the time they have known each other, Ella and Noah have grown to be the best versions of themselves for each other. They have learned patience, kindness, communication, and how to love and be loved unconditionally.

While the wedding is far away, they have training and school to get through first! They are so excited to have you on this journey with them!

The Wilkes’ coming 2027!

1 Corinthians 13:4-7

Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
