Marshall and I met while going to college at UNCW in August, 2018. We were in the same chemistry lab and met on the first day. Marshall asked for the numbers of a few classmates and to start a study group. Little did I know, this was all just to get my number. I am glad Marshall did this, because after that lab, Hurricane Florence hit Wilmington and destroyed Dobo Hall (the science building that held most of our classes including the chemistry lab). We were out of school for a month while the school adjusted classes. During this time, Marshall and I kept in touch and I even drove from Goldsboro to Wilmington through road closures just to see him. This drive ended up taking me 7 hours (my parents were not happy). Marshall and I clicked immediately. We talked about everything from fishing to family and life goals. We quickly became best friends and started dating. Fast-forward 4.5 years later and Marshall brought me back on campus in front of (the newly updated) Dobo Hall to propose. We purchased our first home together in February, 2023 and added our dog Skye to our little family. The past 6 years together have been the absolute best. I cannot wait for years of new memories as Mr. and Mrs. Creech.
