Our Story

Photos

Halle & Kelsey met on their first night at McMaster in 2017. They were inseparable during their time in Hamilton, sharing residence buildings, houses, and even walls. Despite Halle moving to New Hampshire in 2021, the two have never been closer.

Halle

Bailey gave Kelsey a tour on their first day of classes at McGill. The two were instantly close. Although Bailey lives in Winnipeg, between planning Bailey’s wedding last summer, planning Kelsey’s wedding this summer, work, & life in general, these two talk on the phone 3-5 times a day, every single day.

Sarah & Kelsey completed their Master's together at McGill. Sarah, Kelsey, (& Bailey) spent every weekend they could hiking in Quebec, New York, and Vermont. Sarah’s always ready for an adventure, but more than that, she's always by your side, helping anyway that she can. 

Sarah

Danielle & Kelsey completed their Undergrad together at McMaster. Despite having a different hair colour every time you see her, Danielle is one of the most consistent friends you could ask for. She's always willing to make the trip to see the people she loves.

Danielle

Ryan & Deven have been best friends for as long as they can remember. Ryan's daughter is our flower girl & he's a legendary mechanic, but most importantly a selfless and trustworthy friend. 

Ryan

Joe & Deven have been friends since they started playing hockey together when they were young. Joey continues to stay close with Deven despite living far apart, always making an effort to see eachother. They share numerous hobbies that continue to lead unforgettable memories.

Austen's one of Deven's big brothers. They're Irish twins - almost; 14 months. They share an outstanding love for hunting, fishing, and dirt bikes. While they did fight and continue to argue, it's hard to find brothers like them.

Austen

Carter & Deven met at RMC in 2017. Carter has more tattoos than anyone you know & he's always in for a game of crib & maybe euchre. Deven and Carter have travelled all over North America together, sharing the aspirations to try anything.
