Our Story

It all started one day in 2015 in Oshkosh WI. When we met in Jordans dorm at UWO in a friends room where a bunch of people were hanging out. We began to hang out in that group but soon discovered that we shared a mutual love of the same band and from that day on, we became best friends.


The college years went on, and friends we remained through different relationships, work, school, and other directions we took. After about a year of not being super close, spring of 2018 Jordan starts working at the Oshkosh Target Starbucks - a place that I (Emilie) frequented. Funnily enough, we reconnected by seeing each other there all the time. We have been inseparable ever since.


We both graduated in Spring of 2019, and moved back to the Milwaukee area. The real love story begun though, when COVID hit in spring of 2020 and Jordan was living alone on the East Side of Milwaukee. Nobody wants to spend quarantine alone, so many a days were spent together during that time playing tennis, MarioKart, watching Schitts Creek, cooking dinners together, driving around aimlessly, daily Target runs, or just watching any and every bad early 2000's movie.


Jordan proposed on December 17th, 2022 in Lincoln Park in Chicago - a place we love to spend the weekends together from time to time, and one of our favorite cities to see concerts in. Take a peek at the photo timeline below to see how we've spent the past 9 years together.


Funnily enough, before that fateful day in Oshkosh we were at the Walk The Moon show at Summerfest in June of 2015. I took a video of the crowd from the third row only to discover three months later when we met that a certain someone was also there, in the 5th or 6th row, and is in the video which you can see in the red circle. And that is a prime example of the invisible string theory!
