Our story began in February 2020 when we first saw each other at a 6:00 a.m. strength and conditioning session for our respective sports, decked out in our finest attire. After a courageous follow on Instagram, a brave “Hey” on Snapchat, and some time spent learning more about each other, we became best friends.

The pandemic arrived just as we started as a new couple. We bonded over our shared resilience, and our love continued to grow. We embraced the highs and lows of college together. Our accomplishments and successes were celebrated by both of us. Similarly, we faced challenges together, navigating stressful classes and personal struggles with unwavering support, knowing that each experience only strengthened our bond.

We have discovered that our shared values and mutual respect guide us through both smooth and challenging times, creating a stable foundation for our relationship.

At the tail end of a West Coast road trip, on a beach in Santa Barbara, California, we affirmed our love with an engagement. Since that day, our excitement for our wedding on March 21, 2025, has only grown. We are thrilled to share this special day with our beloved family and friends.
