Our Wedding

We first crossed paths on a Christian dating app called Holy. From the very beginning, it was clear that God had something special in store. He quickly became my best friend and biggest supporter—and he still loves to remind me that we could have met two weeks earlier if I had just seen his first message and replied right away! Our first date was at Texas Roadhouse, followed by a fun night at Main Event. From that moment on, life has been full of adventures. Over the past two years, we’ve shared countless memories at football games, WWE events, and through endless laughter. Together, we’ve grown not only as a couple but also in our faith. One of our favorite memories comes from a late-night FaceTime call a few months into dating. David told me, “We will be together forever and ever.” I teased him by asking, “Are you sure?” and he reassured me, “Yes. I’m not going anywhere for the foreseeable future.” That moment has since become one of our favorite inside jokes. Our story is one of love, faith, laughter, and unwavering commitment—and we’re so excited to continue writing it as husband and wife.

Our Story

Photos

Hello there! I am a Jesus and Dr. Pepper lover. I am a big fan of all things Disney, and I am an aspiring photographer. I love crafting, spending time with family and friends or to even curl up with a good book. I am probably the most girly girl you will ever meet. I am almost always wearing something pink and a hair bow! I try my best to leave a little bit of sparkle everywhere I go!

Hi I'm David, the groom. I grew up in Dayton but now live in Cincinnati. I like to say that I'm living life like a wrestling match. Try to make an entrance that is memorable, push through all the bumps and bruises to tell a story. However like John Cena I will kick out at 2 and never give up. I am a Pittsburgh Steelers fan (shocking I know). I also like a variety of sports including racing, hockey and baseball.
