Austen and I met through one of our bridesmaids, Chloe Calley. We met in the summer of 2016, we started dating that fall. We stayed together being 7 hours from each other in college for a few years and then 2 hours apart for an extra year. We moved into our home together in 2020 and got engaged in 2023. Austen proposed to Olivia on the beach in Mexico on March 18, 2023. One our favorite activities to do together is to travel. Colorado is one of our favorite places and we thought why not get married there. We wanted to celebrate with all of our favorite people so decided to do an extra reception at home in our very own backyard.
