Our story begins in the midst of our junior year of high school in 2014. Both of us were student athletes and we instantly bonded, developing a strong relationship. We had a long-distance relationship throughout our college years but made time for each other on the weekends, holidays and summer breaks. After graduating from college, Presley began her career as a Certified Occupational Therapist Assistant and Michael joined the US Army. Our love grew stronger during Michael's Army Boot Camp training where we were unable to communicate regularly. Following Michael's graduation from Officer Candidate School, we packed up and moved across the country to Sierra Vista, Arizona. During a long weekend trip to the Grand Canyon we got engaged after Michael stalled for hours after sunset. After 6 months in Arizona, we moved across the country to Raeford, North Carolina. We purchased our first home and live happily with our two dogs Rocky and Poppy! We have had an exciting journey and the love we have for one another is genuine.

We are so excited to celebrate with our family and friends!

Thank you all for the love and support!

Love,

Michael & Presley
