Hello everyone. We are excited to celebrate our love with you! We would like to start by sharing our story...

We met in the summer of 2015, heading into our senior year of high school. Attending neighboring schools, we were introduced to each other through mutual friends. We kept in touch throughout the summer and started talking daily.

As senior year came to an end, Luke was heading to the University of Pittsburgh, and Renee was off to Slippery Rock University. We still managed to continue our connection. Throughout the four years at college and four months of Luke in Australia, we got to know each other better. During those years, we laughed, cried, traveled, learned, and met some incredible people. Despite it all, we still wanted to be by each other's side.

After college, Luke started his first job at Mercedes-Benz, and Renee began her doctoral degree at the University of Pittsburgh. Fast forward to July 8th 2022, we got engaged!

With Renee graduating in April of 2023 and Luke making career moves, we plan on buying a house in the summer of 2023, all on top of wedding planning. However, we would not want it any other way. We thank you for supporting us in our journey and cannot wait to celebrate on July 4th, 2024 <3
