Our Wedding

Caleb and Emily’s story began on a warm summer evening in downtown Charleston on July 30, 2022. Caleb, serving in the Army, was on leave before beginning IBOLC. After a brief conversation, he asked for her number and quickly convinced her to go on a date.He chose Tempest, a charming restaurant on Market Street. At the end of the meal, the restaurant gifted every man a cigar and every woman a red rose. To this day, they still have both.Since that night, their love has grown across the miles from long-distance stretches during Ranger School, a move to Tennessee, and a deployment to Poland. While Caleb was away, Emily was hard at work earning her master’s degree, further building a future they both dreamed of. In May of 2024, while Caleb was on leave from his deployment, he and Emily reunited in Rome, Italy. While exploring the Roman Forum, he asked her to marry him.Just a few months later, in July 2025, they completed building their very first home together, a place that will be filled with memories, laughter, and love. Now, they are more than ready to begin this next chapter, surrounded by the people who mean the most to them.Through every chapter, near and far, their unwavering commitment to one another has remained the heart of their story. They cannot wait to celebrate with you and begin the rest of their forever, together.
