Sofia and Brandon's love story began at Illinois State University during a fun bowling game that revealed Brandon's impressive skills! 🎳 Their connection blossomed through memorable dates, including trips to the Illinois State Fair and cheering on the Chicago Cubs. After college, they faced the challenges of a long-distance relationship but made the most of it by exploring new places together.

During the uncertainty of the COVID lockdown, they found comfort in a new chapter by moving into their first apartment in Minnesota, with their furry companion, Remy, by their side. 🐕 Brandon thrived in his career at Principal Financial Group, while Sofia celebrated her first year as a teacher. 👩🏽‍🏫 Brandon's love shone brightly when he proposed at Lake Superior during a rock hunting adventure, creating unforgettable memories filled with thunderstorms, Cinnabons, petting jellyfish, and a stop at McDonald's. 🍟❤️💍🐠

In June 2022, they transitioned from apartment living to homeownership, embracing the joys of their first home and creating cherished memories with friends and family. Now, they are excited to invite you to join the celebration of their love story, which has journeyed from Illinois to Minnesota, culminating in a joyous wedding this fall! 🥳❤️🎉🍁
