Our Wedding

Sometimes, love finds a way—no matter the distance!&nbsp; Kristen and Jordan’s story began in the most modern way possible: online. Despite the odds (and their location preferences), their paths crossed between Tampa and Orlando, proving that some matches are simply meant to be. From their very first conversations, it was clear they had found something special.&nbsp; By October 2023, they made it official, and their love continued to grow. As their relationship deepened, so did their certainty that they had found “the one.” In June 2024, Jordan made the big move from Tampa to Orlando to be with Kristen, officially starting their life together. It wasn’t just Kristen who welcomed him with open arms—her dog, Cooper, quickly decided Jordan was just as much his person as Kristen was.&nbsp; Then, in January 2025, the moment they both knew was coming finally arrived—Jordan proposed, and Kristen said yes! Now, they are counting down the days until April 2026, when they will say "I do" and start the next chapter of their forever together.&nbsp; They can’t wait to celebrate with all of you!
