Our Story

Photos

I met Kayle at Murray State University in our sorority, AOII, in 2017! She was initially a mentor to me in AOII, but we quickly became best friends and ended up becoming roommates the following year. Kayle lights up any room she walks into and always knows how to make me laugh, but is also there for me at the drop of a hat. She has always been so supportive, dependable, and trustworthy. I couldn't imagine navigating this whole process without her!

Kat and I first met at Murray State University, where we both joined AOII and were part of the same pledge class! From the very beginning, we were inseparable, sharing countless days and unforgettable moments together, but our favorite days were when we'd get Dunkin' and go for drives on country roads. Kat has always been an incredible confidante with a fun-loving spirit who never fails to make me laugh and makes every experience more enjoyable!

Kathleen Harold

Erin is my big sister and has always been an amazing role model and a source of unwavering support. We have bonded over volleyball, Harry Potter, traveling, and our golden retriever babies. She has helped me through so many twists and turns in life and I can't imagine her not being by my side on my wedding day! We can't wait for lifelong double dates with Ryley and Connor!

Erin Wallin

Jess and I met through our mutual friends, Dylan and Kayle, when Jess moved to Nashville from Chicago! We instantly became friends and spent a lot of time together exploring Nashville! I feel so lucky to have met her! She is someone I can truly be myself with, always have so much fun with, and makes every experience so much better! Her and her boyfriend Colin, who also moved to Nashville, are also top notch party hosts and strengthen our friend group bond here in Nashville!

Jessica Deetjen

I met Tatum in Nashville at a sand volleyball tournament that was set up by our gym, Boothcamp, we were going to at the time! We immediately bonded over volleyball and quickly became great friends. Overtime, she has also gotten to know Connor very well and it has been great to see them become friends too! She is one of the most lighthearted, genuine, and fun people we have ever met. We can't wait for her to be with us on our wedding day!

Tatum Harvey

Hailey and I became instant friends when we were 16! We met through my friend Devon, because Hailey and Devon are cousins. We met at their New Year's Eve party in high school and I'm so thankful we met that day because we have been friends ever since! Hailey is so funny, lively, and unpredictable, which I love about her! I can't believe I have known her for 10 years now and am so excited to have her by my side on my wedding day!

J'Von was one of the first people Connor became friends with in college at Central Connecticut State University, walking around the campus talking about football, high school, and the future during their first fall camp. J'Von played left guard and Connor played left tackle. J'Von and Neil were also suite mates with Connor and Cole for the last three years at CCSU.  You won't find Connor laughing more around anyone else than J'Von. They're always down to share a laugh, due to their similar humor, but also enjoy helping each other grow as they enter their next stages of life.

J'Von Brown

Cole was also one of the first people Connor met playing football at Central Connecticut State University. After freshman year, Cole and Connor decided to become roommates. Connor, Cole, and J'Von had so much fun in their college dorm suite. Cole also played right guard on the same offensive line. While not playing football, Connor and Cole spent a lot of time working on math together as their majors had a lot of courses in common with Cole being an engineering major and Connor being a math major. Cole has always been Connor's sounding board, sharing ideas, values, and philosophies.

Cole Phelps

Neil and Connor met before Neil was ever playing football at Central Connecticut State University, as Connor was Neil's host for his high school recruitment. One year while during May/June/July conditioning, Neil and Connor were roommates. Neil, his sophomore year moved in with Connor, Cole, J'Von, instantly deepening the closeness of the group and always brings the energy and excitement. Neil and Connor always pushed each other's competitiveness and Neil helped Connor to relax, have fun, and make the most of his college experience!

Neil Tompkins

Joe and Connor met through a mutual friend, Dylan Cost in Nashville, TN. Joe and Connor instantly had a connection over the same humor and also sharing some of the same interests in math and engineering, as well as hanging out on the weekends. They always enjoy talking about their Italian Catholic upbringing. Connor is so thankful to have met Joe and can't wait to share their mutual interest in skiing and snowboarding in future trips!

Joe Monfeli

Connor met Dylan and Kayle for the first time in Brentwood, TN while hanging out watching TV when Kayle and I were roommates. Dylan at the time was right out of the academy and working at the sheriff's office. Upon meeting and connecting over the same interests and values, Connor and Dylan grew closer over the initial months of Connor and I dating. Connor was unsure he'd have friends outside of his college football friends but instantly knew that Dylan was a friend he'd hope to have in the future. Since then, we've all spent countless days together, from lounging and watching football, to wild nights on Broadway. We can't wait to continue lifelong double dates with them!

Dylan Cost

Connor met Ryley through Erin and Lauren and hit it off right away! Ryley is known for his interesting hobbies, like fish keeping, coffee, cooking, camping, and hiking national parks. Connor also being someone with a thousand interests and hobbies, looked forward to getting closer since day one. They have a lot in common and Connor can't wait to officially be his brother-in-law and go on many more trips together, as well as visit each other!
