It all began at a bustling little restaurant called Philly’s, where fate had a plan for us both. We didn’t know it at first, but working together would spark something neither of us expected. In the beginning, we were just coworkers, but over time, as we spent more moments side by side, something deeper began to grow. The way we laughed, supported each other, and shared little glances—slowly, we realized we were falling for each other.

After seven years of dating, full of joy and challenges, we took a huge step: we got engaged. But life, as it tends to do, led us in different directions, and we made the decision to take some time apart. We needed to grow individually, to focus on ourselves and our faith, and to seek a deeper connection with God. It wasn’t easy, but we knew it was necessary.

In that space, we found strength, clarity, and a renewed understanding of what truly matters. We grew closer to God, and to each other, in ways we hadn’t imagined. The time apart only made us realize how much we wanted to be together, and when we came back into each other’s lives, it felt as though the stars had aligned once again.
And so, we got engaged for the second time—this time, with even more love and a stronger foundation beneath us.

As we look ahead to our wedding day on March 28, 2025, we know this is just the beginning of the next chapter in our story. We love to spend our time cheering on Kentucky together, playing with our dog, River, and enjoying life’s simple moments. Going to church together reminds us of the blessings we have, and we are filled with gratitude for every step we’ve taken, separately and together.

This is our love story, built on time, faith, patience, and a bond that will only continue to grow.
