Our story began just a block away from each other, growing up so close yet never crossing paths. That changed during our final year at the University of Iowa, where we officially met and instantly connected. It didn’t take long for us to fall head over heels for each other!

After graduating, we moved to the suburbs of Chicago, where we started building our life together. In the spring of 2023, we welcomed our Golden Retriever, Penny, who quickly became the light of our lives. Over the past three years, we’ve embraced all that Chicago has to offer, traveled to new places, and created countless cherished memories with family and friends.

On a beautiful day in the heart of Chicago, September 21, 2024, we got engaged—a moment filled with love, joy, and so much excitement for the future. We feel incredibly blessed to share a love that’s both genuine and unwavering, and we can’t wait to celebrate our journey with all of our favorite people!
