Our Wedding

In order to understand how long we have been in each others lives and how long we have loved each other, you have to go back to August of 2012. It all started in a small town in Southern Illinois. As recent high school graduates, we both moved to Carbondale IL to start our college careers. Meeting new people and making new friends was tough for the most part. The first day of Speech 101 we found out we were from the same town so naturally we started talking. We didn't know it at the time but this would be the place we would spend several formative years together: growing up, studying, exploring, never getting into trouble ever, and learning what love is and loving each other more and more everyday. We became friends almost immediately, and in 2015 started taking our friendship to another level. Below is a glance at how we got here.
