Kelsey and Austin's story began back in 2007, back when shaggy hair and studded belts were all the rage in middle school. They hit it off instantly and began hanging out at all the classic teen spots in Columbus, Ohio. But as high school came and went, life started pulling them in different directions and they eventually lost touch.

Then, in 2019, Austin ran into Kelsey during a casual night out and sparks flew. Their friendship reignited, growing stronger than ever, as they confided and leaned on one another through the challenges of their young adult life. Austin eventually grew the courage and decided it was time to officially ask Kelsey out on a date and although Kelsey had her reservations, she reluctantly agreed.

Fast forward through more dates and unforgettable memories, the two made the leap into exclusivity and Kelsey was practically a permanent fixture at Austin's place.

Shortly after Kelsey and Austin began dating, the unexpected challenge of the COVID-19 pandemic emerged, testing the resilience of their relationship in unforeseen ways. Suddenly, they found themselves navigating a world filled with uncertainty, isolation, and constant change. Yet, amidst the chaos and with Kelsey's support, they took a leap of faith and Austin pursued a new career, leading them to move to Arlington, Virginia. There, Kelsey and Austin’s love for each other and relationship with God grew stronger than ever.

As Kelsey and Austin embark on this new chapter in their lives, they express heartfelt gratitude to their friends, family, and God for their unwavering support and love. With faith and love as their guiding lights, they step into marriage with joy and appreciation for the journey ahead.
