Kenlee and I met when we were in elementary school together and then later started dating in high school when we were 15. Our first date was to the movies and Kenlee asked me to be his girlfriend shortly after that Christmas Eve, 2015.
We dated all through high school and went to each other‘s proms. We have grown up together and experienced a lot together. When it was time for college. I wanted to go to Clemson and Kenlee did as well. We both decided to go there together and it was one of the best decisions we made!
We spent four years in Clemson together where we met some of our best friends and had the best time. We grew in our relationship with each other and discovered our passions. We attended many functions and formals together and a lot of Clemson football games! I graduated in May 2021 with a degree in early childhood education and Kenlee graduated in December 2021 with a degree in agriculture mechanism. Clemson will forever have a special place in our hearts.
After college, I moved to Beaufort to teach and Kenlee moved back home to work as a sales rep for Nutrian Ag. This was our first time, not living in the same town. The years after college were very different, but we both grew in our relationship with the Lord and our love for each other grew even more. About three years after college December 2023, Kenlee asked me to marry him at Lands End Beach, South Carolina. This beach is where we have spent many summers together and actually was the same spot where he asked me to prom in 2017! Of course I was over the moon excited and said yes. I was growing very impatient with him at the time ha ha.
Since then, we have been wedding planning and house hunting and are excited to move back home after our wedding in June. We are so thankful to our friends and family who have supported us through all of our years and very pivotal moments in our lives and we are extremely thankful for the Lord and what he has done in our relationship and the grace has shown us from bringing us together all those years ago in high school to each step along the way since then. We are excited for what He has planned for us in the future.
We are looking forward to celebrating this marriage before God and all of you on June 14th!
