Our Wedding

Olivia and CJ first met while attending college at Samford University in 2019. Olivia first caught CJ’s eye after meeting her through his sister who was in the same sorority. They began spending time together and soon enough, they were like two peas in a pod. It was not long until CJ asked Olivia to be his girlfriend and the rest is history.   During the next few years, Olivia and CJ spent most of their time together going on adventures and with their friends. Some of their favorite memories are the adoptions of their dog Koe and cat Basil.   CJ proposed to Olivia in December of 2022. He chose a special place in front of a small church at Tannehill State Park. Olivia thought she was going to a family photoshoot, but CJ had planned a special proposal. He convinced Olivia to go for a walk up to the church. Olivia had no idea that at the end of their walk, on top of the hill would be the setting for her proposal and one of their happiest days. We cannot wait to celebrate with you at our wedding ceremony and reception in May!
