Our Wedding

Emilee and Zonterio first met through an online dating platform. Come to find out, they had classes together on Western Michigan Universitys campus. From there, their bond grew quickly. Late-night Qdoba runs became their thing. Movie nights turned into all-night study sessions, and study sessions turned into memories they’d never forget. In the middle of college chaos, they found something calm and steady in each other. Suddenly, everything was uncertain. Campus shut down. Classes went remote. And Emilee moved back home to Grand Haven while Zonterio stayed in Kalamazoo. For many, it would’ve been too much. But not for them. They took turns making the drive, sacrificing weekends just to spend time together. As college resumed some sense of normalcy, their love only deepened. Emilee became Zonterio’s biggest fan, cheering him on through every football season, rain or shine. And Zonterio gave that same love right back. When Emilee began her Master’s degree, he stood by her through the late nights, the deadlines, the moments of doubt. What started as a swipe turned into a partnership built on support, sacrifice, and deep, unwavering love. Through classes, pandemics, football games, and degrees, Emilee and Zonterio grew not just as individuals, but as a team. With school behind them, theyre each finding their stride in their own careers, supporting one another through the challenges and triumphs of adulthood. They’ve traveled to new cities together, explored new places hand-in-hand, and continue making memories in the city where it all began—Kalamazoo. They’ve made their very first apartment a home, filled with laughter, comfort, and the quiet joy of building a life together. What started as a simple swipe turned into a relationship rooted in resilience, love, and deep connection. We cannot wait to write another chapter in our story and celebrate with you all at our wedding on November 13th!!
