Erika and Luke both grew up in Stilwell, Oklahoma. They first became friends in 2017, working with children at the same after school program. This job soon became their favorite part of the day, as they looked forward to seeing & laughing with each other. About a year later, Luke made it official and asked Erika to be his girlfriend in September of 2018.

The couple has been inseparable since, both attending the University of Oklahoma and enjoying college life together.

5 years later, in August of 2023, Luke surprised Erika with an intimate proposal at her grandparents’ family farm in Hennessey, OK.

Now, the two are looking forward to joining family and friends at their wedding celebration this fall!
