Josiah and I both grew up in Cincinnati. We went to the same camp, had mutual friends, but never met in childhood.

While I was on leave in Cincinnati, I met Josiah at a Christmas Party and started a natural friendship. We bonded over hanging around the snack table and talking about the Bengals (Who Dey!). One night, many months later, no other friends were free to hang out and I went to Josiah’s home and ended up playing Connect4 and Battleship. From this point on Josiah pursued me and a couple months later I accepted a date. From then on out, it was love, laughter, fun, a lot of ice cream, and a relationship where we both have been able to be our true, goofy, selves.

Josiah surprised me with a proposal on New Years 2024 and here we are, excited to welcome you to celebrate alongside us at our wedding!
