Sophie and I first met through mutual friends at a party back in 2019. Fast forward to 2021, we met again at the Famous Preble County Fair and the timing was perfect. This time I was too nervous to talk to her at first, but a few days later, I gathered up some courage and slid into her DMs asking her if she was single and if she would go out with me the next weekend. Fortunately, Sophie thought this was smooth and ever since that weekend we have been inseparable.

With the help of Sophie’s parents and brothers I planned the ultimate surprise. I got down on a knee in the living room of our home after taking her to the same place as our first ever date. Afterwards she claims she knew it was coming the whole time (impossible to keep a secret from her) it was an amazing experience.

A few of our favorite memories from our time together include: Going on vacation to Ft. Myers Beach, moving in together, Norris Lake trips, treating our dogs Hogan & Rocky like our children, Hunting, and cheering on The Ohio State Buckeyes, Packers, and Bengals (WHO DEY!!!).

Clayton and I are so excited for you to join us as we say I do at our destination wedding in July of 2024. See you soon!
