It all began with two people, each focused on building their own futures, working hard to carve out their paths. A friendship began to grow — first at work, then beyond it — and soon, it was clear something special was unfolding.

Then one day, out of the blue, Jacob asked Krista to be his date to a friend’s wedding… four hours away. It was bold, unexpected, and definitely not your average first date — meeting his closest friends, his parents, and even his sister all in one whirlwind weekend. But somehow, it felt just right. That moment, though a little crazy, marked the beginning of something neither of them had anticipated.

For a while, they kept their growing connection a secret. There were shared smiles, quiet conversations, and even secret picnic dates at the park — little moments just

for the two of them. But even as they kept things private, their bond only deepened. Their relationship grew quickly, shaped by life-changing events that arrived just as

they began dating. They learned to lean on each other, supported one another, and realized that facing those challenges together early on brought them closer and helped build a strong foundation.

Their first trip together — to Savannah, Georgia — was filled with laughter, new experiences, and love at first sight (with the city and each other). Two years later, they returned to their special place in Savannah, and Jacob proposed beneath the moss-draped oaks at Wormsloe. Krista had no idea it was coming, which made it all the more perfect. Getting engaged in a city that meant so much to us made the moment even more unforgettable.

Since that first unexpected date, Jacob and Krista have shared countless adventures and milestones, always side by side. Now, they’re ready to begin their next chapter— not just as partners, but as husband and wife — and they can’t wait to celebrate this moment with all of you.
