Our Wedding

Anna and Matthew first met each other through InterVarsity Christian Fellowship, one of the campus ministries at UW-Stevens Point. At the time, Matthew was a freshman studying Music Education and Anna was a sophomore studying Early Childhood Education. Matthew totally would have fallen in love with Anna sooner, but everyone was wearing masks and had to social distance. Bummer. After a year and a half of knowing each other as friends and Bible study leaders, Matthew decided to ask Anna out (bum bum buuuummm). He was preparing for a solo performance, and asked Anna to listen to his solo so that he could practice performing in front of people. Little did she know, however, that Matthew was about to ask a question that would change their lives forever... After playing his solo, he asked her if she would like to get to know each other more deeply. Once Anna said yes, they began going on picnics, playing mini golf, and generally falling more and more in love with one another each day. After a year of dating, Anna and Matthew prayerfully decided that it was time to end their relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend. Instead, they would now be engaged! "As we look back and reflect, we can see now that God has been orchestrating our relationship from the first day, and we're so excited to step into the next chapter of the story He's writing for us as we get married!" - Anna and Matthew
