Our Wedding

One “crazy” night at Lewis University, Sarah and her friends decided to go to Cody Hall and party with a few other students. One of which, was Chris. Sarah immediately had her eye on Chris, but never in a million years would have expected anything to come of it. Before the party, Chris would see Sarah around campus and had a crush on her. A couple weeks had past and Sarah only remembered Chris’s name from that first time in Cody Hall and found him on Facebook. She messaged him one Saturday asking if anything was going on and he invited her over to Cody Hall to hang out and play some drinking games in his friend’s dorm. Sarah sat next to Chris. Chris didn’t get the hint Sarah was trying to flirt. The night went on, they played pool and eventually Chris took Sarah back to her dorm. They exchanged snapchat and eventually cell numbers and have been inseparable ever since. After 2 months of talking to each other, Sarah was sitting in her literature class texting Chris. Chris made a sly comment asking Sarah to be his girlfriend OVER TEXT. Sarah started work 30 min after class, but ran to Chris’s dorm ecstatic before leaving because she now had a boyfriend. They fell in love, went on and graduated from Lewis University and both are successful in their careers. After 6 years of dating, Chris and Sarah got their first apartment together. Year 7, Chris got down on one knee and asked his best friend to spend the rest of his life with him. At the end of 2023 or beginning of 2024 Chris and Sarah plan to buy their first house together. There’s no other man more perfect for Sarah than Chris is. They are so excited to start their marriage journey together!
