Reception

Our Wedding

We first met during Sumners interview week in March of 2022. But we didn’t go on our first date—to an SMU basketball game—until January of 2023. Since that first date, we’ve gone on quite a few adventures and laughed too many times to count. We can’t wait to see what new adventures the future holds, and we can’t wait to celebrate together with you on August 9th!
