Our Wedding

First Met

Kelsey and Jeffrey first met in 2019 during their junior year of high school. Kelsey was a customer at Skyline Chili in Finneytown, where Jeffrey was working in the kitchen. After several visits and seeing him each time, Kelsey eventually worked up the courage to ask for his Snapchat. That moment marked the beginning of their friendship.

Building a Relationship 

For their senior year, Kelsey and Jeffrey chose to attend Roger Bacon’s homecoming together as friends. They were not sure about dating yet since they went to different high schools.

Early Dating

When the COVID-19 lockdown began, Kelsey and Jeffrey started spending time together nearly every day. From bike rides and walks to enjoying ice cream dates, they made the most of their time together. In July 2020, at Caesar Creek Lake, Jeffrey asked Kelsey to be his girlfriend, and from that moment on, they’ve been inseparable.
