Our Story

I could go on for hours about this man. A friend, leader, husband, and disciple of Jesus. Brandon has discipled me for almost 2 years now, his leadership and wisdom have been a lifeline for me. Brandon has become one of my best friends and a man that I hope to be like as I step into marriage.  If I could define Brandon in one word it would be Selfless.  He has experienced pain in ways I wouldn't wish on anyone yet he continues to love on those around him with everything he has. Brandon will be beside me on the big day but more importantly, he will be there for life. I love you brother.

I met Isaac on Facebook before our Freshman year at Ohio State in a roommate group.  After a few short conversations over text, we decided to be roommates and lived together all 4 years. Isaac helped me to start following Jesus intentionally and has been a friend that many can only hope for.  This man has been my side through some of the toughest moments of my life. I couldn't be more proud to call him a brother. Ike, I love you, thanks for being in my corner

Isaac Beam

The older brother of Isaac, Dr. Wes Beam DDS  has been as consistent as they come. Wes has walked through some difficult seasons of my life with me for as long as I have known him. His wife Kayla has also been an incredible friend and I'm extremely thankful for both of them. Wes, I look forward to years of beating you on the golf course. Thanks for being a great friend and an even better dentist.

Cory and I met in 5th grade and we have been best friends ever since. Cory and I have both walked through some serious personal trials throughout the years but we've been able to do it together. When I think of someone who would truly drop everything to be there for me, Cory comes to mind. Cory is currently attending the U.S Naval Academy and I might be the most proud friend on the planet.

I started working at Starbucks during my Sophomore year of High School. My first day on the job, Jordon was assigned as my trainer. Little did I know that Jordon was going to become one of my best friends. Jordon is someone who will drop everything for those he loves. Jordon has become not only a crucial part of my life but part of my family. I can't imagine life without my broadway superstar. Please don't forget about Kelsey and I when you're famous. Love you beyond words brother.

Jonah and I grew up going at each other during after-school YMCA basketball games. We both found Christ in the years to follow after I moved to Columbus for school and re-connected through God's will. During Covid, Jonah and I worked out nearly every morning together and spent our summer going through God's word together. Jonah is a leader, a friend many can only hope for, and a dedicated follower of Jesus. I am a better man because of Jonah and am honored to call him a friend. Jonah, you are a cornerstone in my life, I love you sir.

Tyler, my new oldest brother. I am shocked you are willing to be in a wedding where the groom is a Patriots fan, then again you are a pastor and I appreciate your forgiveness. In the short time I've known Tyler, I've gotten to see what it looks like to be a lovingly loyal husband and father. A man that leads his household closer to Jesus daily. A man that I want to be. Tyler, I love you brother, Go Pats!

Tyler Morgan

One of the first supporters of Kelsey and I dating. Austin, thanks for planting a seed in Kelsey's head and for asking Brandon to do the same for me. I am pumped for our Buckeye watch parties, rounds of Golf, and hearing your kid cry for years to come. Between you and Tyler, I'm not sure that I could have asked for two better brother-in-laws. Thanks for loving me from day one, so grateful for you.

Austin Morgan

JP! I played youth basketball with this guy when we were in 6th grade and we won a championship together. We didn't really talk again until high school and we became super close friends. Jaret has a heart of gold and his entire family has taken me in as one of their own. Both of us moved away from home for school but made it a priority to see each other every time that we could. I look forward to winning an Emmy together when we create our comedy show. JP, I'm so thankful for you and can't wait to marry you and Katie. I love you brother.

Jaret Pallotta

I met Connor in the bathroom, and no that's not a joke. This was a little over a year ago and I can truly say that this man has become one of my best friends. From our time in Options/Futures lecture to our road trip Nashville, some of my best memories during the last year of college were because of Connor. And just wait till you see this cat hit the dance floor! Connor, thanks for being a loyal and dependable friend, I look forward to embarrassing our spouses in public for years to come.

Connor Smith

Aud, where do I even begin? My first recollection of meeting you was at our brothers baseball games when our moms introduced us and said we should play together. Yeah right, I was not gonna leave my moms side 😂. Then I started school at WC and started playing Bball with you and I realized that you were the calm to the “hot mess self” that I am. I could go on and on about all the memories we have together, from the 2,000 piece puzzle we did in Biology class to talking all things flowers and baking. You know me better then I know myself and you still choose to love me. Thanks for always being patient with me despite the endless amount of sass I give you 😂

Audrey Rickly

Court, I feel like we didn’t truly become good friends until 7th grade. I specifically remember sitting next to you in Mr. Clutz’ Bible class and thinking to myself, “this girl makes me laugh,” and boy do you still make me laugh today. Whether it’s sharing your embarrassing stories, or making fun of my super long stories, you can always cheer me up! We have traveled the world together, played endless sports together and (my favorite) tried and failed at so many Pinterest projects 😂. By far my favorite memories with you have been the last year as we have studied multiple books of the Bible. You have encouraged me, held me accountable, and most importantly pushed me closer to Christ. Thanks for being you and for loving me so well ❤️

Courtney Prior

Hannah, I am still in awe of the risk you took in saying yes to living with me despite having never met me. The way you trusted the Lord completely is so inspiring. You have seen my messy side and you still love me. You encouraged me to just go to Top Golf with Jeff whether it was a date or not because you knew we would have fun. You have been the #1 supporter in Jeff and I’s relationship.  You have taught me so much about myself and about the Lord in the past two years that I have known you.  My favorite thing ever was getting to experience Guinea with you, being able to see your passion for serving others, your ability to immerse yourself in a new culture and do it all with a smile on your face. Thanks for putting up with my shenanigans and being my last roommate ever! 

Hannah Tilley

Nat, I honestly have no idea how we became friends, I just know that one day you were just the teacher who had pneumonia all winter long and the next memory you are one of my best friends. You bring so much joy to my life, whether it’s through our regular marg nights, learning new board games or our ups and downs on the golf course. You are always there for me and always cheering me on (especially during one of Tabby’s Pilates classes). Thanks for loving me despite my lack of knowledge about Missy Elliot and just being the best :)

Natalie Weber

Kate, I don’t know where I would be right now if you wouldn’t have sat next to me in Microbiology at the start of nursing school. You have loved me like the sister I never had from the beginning of our relationship. You have educated me on all things “farm”, you loved me even when my ADD disrupted all of your studying, and you picked me up after countless falls while teaching me to water ski 😂. Thanks for letting me into your family and including me on all the fam vacations.  Thanks for stealing that girl’s seat and deciding to talk to the “girl from the city” 

Kaitlin Pursel

Gracie girl, I remember when Jeff told us that his little sister was going to join our group, I was excited but honestly was not expecting to love you as much as I do. Your smile will light up a room, you always see the good in others and are willing to show up even when something is uncomfortable.  I love how willing you are to teach me new things (like riding a horse or holding a duck 😂). You laugh at my jokes and you help me find ways to tease Jeff.  Thanks for loving me like a sister since day 1, I’m glad we can finally make it official!

Grace Shafer

Nicole, the person I was convinced I was never going to talk to again after our first introduction…(she also said the same thing about me 😂) little did I know that after a trip to Africa and back this girl would go on to become one of my best friends. From encouraging me to golf 18 holes instead of only 9, to playing darts with me in our basement throughout Covid, Nicole has a unique ability to push me outside my comfort zone all while making me feel supported and loved. I am so thankful that we both saw past our first interaction 😂

Nicole Bower

Morgan, also known as 3Creeks—golfer, I am so thankful for that church picnic where we got connected and eventually became one of my best friends. You are such a thoughtful friend and have taught me so much. We can laugh together, we can have deep conversations together, and now we have planned weddings together! You are by far my favorite dentist even though I think I’d rather have all my teeth pulled before I get another crown 😂. I’m thankful to walk by you in this season and can’t wait to have you stand by my side! 

Morgan Schaffer

Bethany, one of my favorite memories of you is when you tried to make brownies at our house and you somehow ended up with too much liquid and so then you decided to add more flour and cocoa powder to “fix” it. The brownies turned out like trash, but it’s ok because you turned into an even better sister in law! I’m so thankful for you and the little bugs you put in my ear about how awesome Jeff and I would be together! 

Bethany Morgan

Brittany, one of the first things I remember about you is your love for corn and I loved that because I love Kate and Kate farms corn 😂. You have truly opened up over the years and I think deep down you are one of the most competitive Morgan’s. Thanks for allowing me to be so involved in Sadie and Zeke’s life! 

Brittany Morgan

Keeleigh, from the moment I first met you, I knew I was going to love you! You let me play softball with you, you ask me to do puzzles with you and you teach me how to be hip 😂 I can’t wait to have you stand by my side on my big day! Love you lots!

Keeleigh Shafer

Zeke, you are the little boy who made me into and aunt and that is by far my favorite role of life. Deep down I have always known that you love me the most 😉 even though you make me chase you to get a hug 99% of the time. You laugh at my jokes, you are my favorite baking partner, you love to help me with my projects, and you are always down to do a puzzle with me.  I have loved getting to see you grow up and I can’t wait to have you lead the other hooligans down the aisle on my special day ❤️

Ezekiel Morgan

Sadie Grace, you are growing up so quickly and I am constantly reminded of myself through you. You love to take care of babies (I can’t wait for you to be a baby nurse with me some day ❤️) you love to have fun and take risks and you love to tell people what to do (I have no idea where you get that from 😂). You are going to look so pretty on our wedding day and I can’t wait to see your special dance moves. I love you so very much!

Sadie Morgan

Holden, I know you don’t always express how much you love me but I can tell that I am your favorite based off the smile that lights up your face when I play the Daniel the Tiger theme song. I love spending Sundays with you as my Three Creeks Kids Co-lead since you refuse to go to the nursery. I can’t wait for you to help Jeff and I get married and I promise I will have lots of food for you to eat so you can be extra happy!
