Our Story

Before the I Do's

Kristi and Casson's story began during their freshman year at Tullahoma High School. With Kristi as a cheerleader and Casson playing football, a deep friendship grew. Over the next four years, they found themselves in the same classes and shared memorable moments with their close-knit group of friends. However, it was during the spring of 2016 when Kristi and Casson made a pact that if they weren't married by the age of 30, they would marry each other!


Time went by, and before you knew it, they had both graduated from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. After reconnecting at a Chattanooga Lookouts Thirsty Thursday baseball game (lol), it didn't take long for Kristi & Casson to start hanging out again. Next thing you know, they were on their first official date, where they spontaneously went to Asheville, North Carolina and spent the night brewery hopping. A few short months later, Kristi looked at Casson and said “JUST DATE ME ALREADY” :)))


A year and a half went by, filled with love, laughs, and being the best friends they could possibly be. They moved to Nashville together in June of 2022 where they began their careers and the beginning of the rest of their lives together. They started taking an annual ski trip to Utah, went to Spain and drove the coast to France, went to their new cities sports games, explored as many breweries as they could, and a new found love for cooking together.


Then, on April 21st 2023, Casson proposed to Kristi, returning to the very place where their journey began— Asheville, North Carolina. As Kristi said “This is happening right now?!!?”, Casson dropped to one knee and asked those four words.


We are so excited for a lifetime of love together and we can't wait to celebrate with our closest friends and family. <3
