Where do we even begin?

Hadley moved to Jackson, MS in 2005, then transferred to Jackson Academy in 2007 as a second grader. It was in the second grade that they like to claim love at first sight. The class was putting on a production of Little House on the Prairie, and Hadley was quickly paired with Jack to be square dance partners. As you can probably imagine, their second grade "relationship" did not last very long. However, they rekindled in the 6th grade as young tweens about to start Junior High. Once again, their 6th grade "relationship" came to an end after Jack jumped the gun and tried to hold Hadley's hand. Hand holding was off limits.

The real love story began around May 2017. Jack and Hadley had become good friends in the 11th grade over their favorite Netflix show at the time. This friendship progressed after JA won their playoff baseball game. To celebrate, Jack and Hadley proceeded to stupidly drive/swerve their cars down the road leaving the game. Jack's baseball hat conveniently flew out of his car window during the post-game shenanigans, and he decided to throw his car into park in the middle of the road. Because Hadley is a terrible driver and was going way too fast, she inevitably ran into the back of Jack's car. Being the gentleman that he is, Jack took the blame for the crash against his father's legal advice.

In the week after the crash, Jack asked to take Hadley on a "date" to Sonic to makeup for her car damage. This is what led them to transition from good friends to best friends. Throughout the rest of Junior year and the beginnings of Senior year, they talked almost every day and swore to their friends and family that they were nothing more than best friends.

In December 2017, Hadley started to realize she had a crush on Jack all along. The night Hadley confessed her feelings, Jack was also hoping to tell her that he had been wanting to be more than friends for about a year now. Jack and Hadley have been inseparable ever since. Through starting off at different colleges, to Jack transferring after semester 1, to spending every day together during the pandemic, and both toughing out Hadley's veterinary schooling, they have truly been a team every step of the way.

7 years in the making, there is no Jack without Hadley or Hadley without Jack. There is also no Jack and Hadley without our gracious God, loving families, and the most loyal of friends. We want to say thank you to you all from the bottom of our hearts! Our wedding weekend will be filled with a ton of memories, a ton of love, and a ton of fun. We can't wait to celebrate and add a new chapter to our love story. See y'all in NOLA!
