Our love story began in the winter of 2021. All of the credit goes to our besties, Hayden and Lauren. They got the bright idea to set us up while Jacob was home from where he was living at the time (Tulsa, Oklahoma) for graduation/Christmas. While Jacob was home, him and I went on our first date which just so happened to be a wedding. We knew from that night on, we would be having many dates in the future- the only problem being that he lived 7 hours away. Despite the fact that I said I would never do long distance, we endured 7 months of FaceTime, lots of traveling, a lot of happy hellos, and a lot of sad goodbyes. Although long distance was hard, some of my favorite memories were during that bittersweet time. Finally, Jacob moved back to my hometown/college town as I finished up my senior year of college. Doing life together not 7 hours apart was even better and we got even closer than we were before. Fast forward, I graduated college and started my nursing career & Jacob got a job in sports & coaching. Amidst the craziness of adulting and loving life together, Jacob popped the question. We are so excited to start our married lives & can’t wait for November 2nd!
