Our Wedding

Blake and Mackenzie met in Fall of 2018, their Freshman year of college at Fort Hays State University. They had the same friend group the whole semester but somehow never met until November. In true college fashion they were first introduced at a house party. They hit it off and ended up getting married that night in the dorms by one of their friends. Ever since that night they knew they were meant to be together. Being so young when they first meant, they both needed time to grow and figure out who they were so in 2020 they broke up. In 2022 they reconnected and after hanging out for a few weeks they knew that there was still so much love and they were still meant to be together. In October of 2023 they moved in together and started to see what life would look like together. A short year later on October 14th, 2024 Blake proposed to Mackenzie at a pumpkin patch with all of their family. Celebrating their love with all of their family in friends this October is only the beginning of their story and they cant wait to see where life takes their love as they grow as a family.
