Our Wedding

We met online during the Summer of 2023 and immediately hit it off. We clicked so quickly and became each others best friends and started dating shortly after. We moved pretty quickly in our relationship, but when you know you know. February 2024 we got engaged!!! It was the best day pulled off by all of our friends and family. With Riley going on deployment at the end of 2024, we decided to go ahead and legally get married, so May 24, 2024 we went to the courthouse and it was such a sweet special day. Now, we are so excited to share our love with all of our friends and family at our wedding!!

I met Mckenna while working at camp in 2023 and she instantly became my best friend! Even though there is distance between us, I know she is one phone call away.

Sarah was my "mom" and bestie at camp! Her couch was my favorite place to laugh, cry, and take a nap on. She is not afraid to tell me when I am wrong and everyone needs someone like that in their lives.

Makenzie is Rileys sister...and now mine! Very thankful to have her as family. We are in different states, but I know if I need to talk she will always be there and vice versa.

Riley and Nic have been best friends since junior high. Their moms are also best friends so it was bound to happen! Even though they have moved many many miles apart, they have remained close friends!

Nic Irby

Julian is also in the Navy! Him and Riley met in school at Pensacola and ended up in Norfolk together. He never fails to make either one of us laugh and is very reliable for both of us

Dru is Kyas little brother... and now Rileys! Again, it is great to have each other as family now.

Parker and Riley have been friends since the first grade. Although they pick on each other, they will always have each others backs.

Travel

We will be in a beautiful location in the mountains near the James River. If you like hiking, canoeing, kayaking or any outdoor things you can find lots of that here. If you enjoy coffee and a book Baines Coffee in Scottsville is one of my favorite places. Good coffee in a sweet cozy place, If you like history Monticello is not far and a cool place to check out. Carters Mountain is another one of my favorite places! It is beautiful and has yummy apple cider donuts!
