The invisible string theory is the idea that everyone is connected to a specific person by an unbreakable, unseen string that transcends time, distance, and geography. The theory suggests that this connection is not determined by choice, but by fate.

When Morgan was a junior in high school, she attended a production at Illinois Wesleyan University for the first time. Unbeknownst to them both, Evan was the usher that gave Morgan her program that night. The following year, Morgan's senior year in high school, she was fortunate enough to be able to do an overnight/ class sit in at IWU. The class that she sat in on happened to have Evan in it, and at the end of the class, multiple people gave Morgan hugs, and shared well wishes for the upcoming audition, and hopes we'd all see each other again. Evan was one of those people.

When we finally started attending school together, and officially met for the first time, we both couldn't shake the feeling that we had met before. It wasn't until a while of talking back and forth that we realized that we had met once a year leading up to this moment.

Morgan was assigned to be a member of the run crew for the very first time on a Lab Theater production of "Nervous System," the five person play that Evan was in, and from that point forward, the two were inseparable.

We grew up together AND alongside one another, and it has made for the most special relationship. Evan is my best friend, and I have been so lucky to spend the last eight years (almost 9 by the time the wedding gets here!) by his side. We have now both graduated from the same university, conquered long distance for a long time, went on tour together, travelling the country and teaching kids everywhere we went, and we have now started our newest adventure, moving to Orlando, Florida and exploring all of the opportunities here in the Sunshine State.

(but we're both born and raised in Illinois, ya can't get rid of us that easily!)
