The story of Jacob and Margo is one of missed connections and love at first sight.

Margo and Jacob were both born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri. Of course, the first question that everyone from STL asks is "What high school did you go to?" Margo attended Villa Duchesne, playing soccer. Jacob attended Lutheran High St. Charles, also playing soccer. They never met.

After high school, Margo and Jacob both attended Mizzou, where in the first semester, Margo joined the sorority, ADPi, of which Jacob's sister was also a member. Jacob joined FIJI, living across the street from each other. They never met.

Throughout college, Jacob and Margo would unknowingly build close friendships in the same group, many of which are in the bridal party, and hearing second-hand stories of each other and still, they never met.

After college, Jacob and Margo both moved to Kansas City, MO, where Margo established her career at Huhtamaki and Jacob at H&R Block. After one week of living in Kansas City, they finally meet!

Immediately, Jacob knew she was someone special, someone that you will only meet once in your life. Through mutual friends, Jacob was able to reach out to Margo and arrange a first date.

During this date, it was like a light bulb flicked on in both Jacob and Margo's heads! This was the moment they had been waiting for. This was the person they had both been looking for.

After that, Jacob and Margo were inseparable. Margo taught Jacob how to cook and actually season his food and Jacob taught Margo how to get someone to cook for him (she wasn't impressed).

However, through every interaction, from elaborate trips to Europe and California, to the lazy do-nothing days, their love blossomed. There was never a question in their minds whether they were with their best friend and forever love.

Now, they get the opportunity to share that love with you! We are grateful for each and every one that is able to attend our wedding and wish us well into the beginning of the rest of our lives, never to miss a connection again.
