Our Wedding

RJ and Rachel met back in 2015 at a high school basketball tournament. Some of their mutual friends thought they would make a good couple, so they gave Rachel’s phone number to RJ. The two of them started dating about two weeks later— and the rest is history! On August 7, 2022, RJ and Rachel got engaged at sunset after six and half years together.

Our Story 

Engagement Photos

Blaire has been Rachel’s best friend since the first day of kindergarten. They grew up inseparable from each other and are much more like sisters than best friends. There’s no other person Rachel could imagine standing by her side on her wedding day. 



Blaire Reiman 

Elizabeth has been one of Rachel’s best friends since Junior High school. Elizabeth always knows how to make Rachel laugh when mentioning one of their many inside jokes they have accumulated over the years as besties. Rachel can't wait to experience her big day with Elizabeth!

Elizabeth Froemling 

Gracee and Rachel met during the first semester they attended John A. Logan College and they’ve been close friends ever since. Some of their favorite things to do together are to have lunch dates at Chilis, spend too much money at Bath and Body Works, and try new coffee orders at Dunkin Donuts. Rachel cannot wait to celebrate with Gracee on her wedding day!

Gracee Tanner 

Kaitlyn and Rachel have been great friends since Junior High school. Rachel was Kaitlyn's Maid of Honor, so now the roles are reversed! Kaitlyn is one of the first people Rachel turns to for advice in all of life's different circumstances. Just wait until you see these two dancing the night away!


Kaitlyn Ridings

Izzy is Rachel's niece (who was born when Rachel was only nine years old)  so they have done a lot of growing up together! Rachel and Izzy love enjoying pool days together, taking trips to the movies, and of course, Starbucks! Rachel is so happy Izzy will be there to support her on her wedding day.
