Trace and Grace met their freshman year at Grove City College, through their group of close friends in the middle of the pandemic. Their freshman class was especially tight-knit during this time because of the limited amount of activities on and off campus, as well as the small number of students admitted that year. They quickly became the best of friends, and in November 2020 they finally had their first date: an outdoor picnic with a Coffaro's pizza.

On December 28, 2022, Trace proposed at the Cypress House in New Columbia, PA. It couldn't have been done without the help of both sides of the family keeping everything a secret, as well as incredible photography and videography done by Lauren Smith and Tristan Peace.

We are beyond excited to celebrate our love with all of our closest friends and family this July. Thank you not only for reading our story but being apart of it! We love you all!
