Our Wedding

What started as a chance meeting at JD's Corner in South St. Louis in November 2024 quickly turned into something neither of us expected.Stephen, a skilled carpenter; plumber, and Kaitlyn, a full-time medical student and oral surgery met one evening and instantly connected. What began with great conversations soon grew into a relationship built on laughter, support, and a shared love for spending time together.Whether we're competing in a friendly game of pool, cheering on the St. Louis Battlehawks, or simply enjoying everyday life together, we've found that the best moments are the ones we share. Our family wouldn't be complete without our energetic German Shepherd, Greta, who keeps us on our toes and fills our home with love and excitement.Through every adventure, challenge, and milestone, we've grown closer and discovered that life is better when we're together. We are so excited to celebrate this next chapter with the people we love most.Thank you for being part of our story. We can't wait to celebrate with you!
