Kelly and Cai met during their Junior year at the University of Florida. Cai was the flag football coach for Chi Omega, Kelly's sorority. Kelly attended a practice to cheer on her friend & now bridesmaid, Moe. She saw Cai for the first time & decided she wanted to partake in the practice, just for fun. Cai was clearly smitten over her clumsiness, since he asked Moe about Kell at the next flag football practice.

Cai asked Kell to be his girlfriend only one month later at the Florida V. Georgia tailgate. Go Gators!

After graduating together, their love faced its first test as Cai embarked on his journey in the U.S. Navy. For four months, they sustained their bond through heartfelt letters exchanged during Cai's Officer Training School. Their reunion marked a new chapter as they moved to San Diego, a city that will hold a special place in both their hearts forever.

Here, Cai & Kell welcomed home their first dog, Gill. Shortly after, Cai proposed to Kell at the North Chapel in San Diego. He always heard her say how much she adored this chapel & how she could even see them getting married one day at a chapel just like it.

Fast forward to the present, Cai & Kell have patiently waited for the perfect time to celebrate their love with their family & friends. They moved to Charleston, where their little white chapel wedding dream will come true.

Their story is a testament to love that endures distance and blossoms in shared dreams, from university days to military service and beyond, as they embark on life's adventures hand in hand.
