Our Wedding

MJ and Lindsey went to the same University in a small city (Danville, VA) where they played college lacrosse. They became acquainted with each other towards the end of Lindsey's senior year after a gentle push from mutual friends, leading Lindsey to approach MJ at a house party! The two instantly clicked and became best friends, hanging out nearly every day, going to lacrosse practice and gamedays together, working out/training together, and (of course) partying! They formed a bond/connection over music and dancing and fell in love (while never telling each other)...had a spontaneous unofficial "first date" at McDonald's in Danville, VA around 3AM after a night out and so many other memories together! Lindsey then graduated in May 2021 and moved to Lynchburg, VA to start PA school while MJ returned home to Richmond, VA to work for the summer before starting his senior year of college. The two spent a lot of time traveling to see each other and FINALLY started dating in the summer of 2021 and continued to support each other while MJ completed his senior year of college and Lindsey completed PA school! In 2023, Lindsey found a job opportunity in Southern California as an OBGYN PA and the two were off to move across the country together. The two have been in SoCal since September 2023 and have been loving life together on the West Coast and got engaged on December 7, 2024!

Southport, NC is a cute, small beach town approximately 35-40 minutes via car from Wilmington. You can also take the Fort Fisher Ferry to get there. Being a place where many movies are filmed, Southport has tons of character, history and beauty with beautiful water views, shops, markets, and restaurants.
