Our Story

Its a love story baby, just say yes

Picture of Its a love story baby, just say yes

JP and Stacey met at Vincennes University in Vincennes Indiana in 2012. Stacey was a student while JP was manager of food services at the student union. Stacey worked upstairs and by luck, they matched on an online dating service, not realizing at first they worked in the same building. After a chance meeting going off-roading in jeeps on valentines weekend; JP with his roommate, Stacey on a "date" JP mentioned; She knows everyone. For an introvert it was strangely accurate.
From there, for Stacey..it was love at first sight.
We became "Facebook official" just a couple weeks later; 03.07.2012.
JP jumped right in and met a huge part of Stacey's family at her brother Ryan's wedding to Kendra on 04.01.2012 Stacey quickly tested JPs shenanigan tolerance by introducing a new member of their little family, Ringo; a 3 year old Boston terrier. JP luckily fell in love and 2 became 3.
The first big adventure would be the decision to move together to Lafayette Indiana. Stacey graduated and off we went. After Lafayette, JP got an amazing job offer and we headed back to Indianapolis where we built our first house together. We lived in Franklin, Indiana spending most of our time at Menards with uncle Kevin thinking up fun and crazy projects to do including cutting TWO wood doors in half to make sliding doors. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Around this same time we introduced a new member of the family, the crazy one, Loki, another Boston terrier puppy. Time passed as it does and soon JP found a new job opportunity, one that would take us 700 miles away from family to South Carolina. We made it work trying to sell and buy a house while we were hundreds of miles apart and have since loved hosting our family and friends as the "vacation spot" and after 13 years, 5 cities, 2 states, 2 apartments, 3 houses and 2 crazy dogs, we cannot wait to share our love of the beach with all of you as we join as husband and wife.
