Our Wedding

I’ll never forget riding around GSW in the car and seeing this smoking hot girl walking a dog with her friends. I asked my buddies, "Who is that absolute dime?" Without hesitation, they all said, "That’s Hannah Cook." Right then and there, I told everyone in that car, "I’m going to date that girl one day." Not long after, flag football season started, and I was lucky enough to be the Kappa Delta coach for their team. That gave me the perfect excuse to spend more time with her — at every practice and every game — and with each day, I liked her more and more. Then, my big chance came: she needed a date for her formal. I pulled out all the stops, trying my hardest to impress her and be the kind of guy she might actually want to give a shot. The next day, I was the happiest guy in the world... because she still texted me back. After that, it would’ve been plain stupid not to chase after the girl of my dreams.One date turned into two, then three. And now, she's my forever date. I cannot thank God enough for bringing her into my life. They say you just know when you’ve found "the one," and for us, that moment came in the quiet mornings — when just thinking about her was enough to start my day with a smile. From the very beginning, there was something about her that just felt like home. We’ve shared laughs, dreams, late-night talks, and a whole lot of love. Through it all, one thing has always been clear: we bring out the best in each other. She’s sweet, caring, endlessly thoughtful — and somehow always knows how to challenge me to be better. She supports me unconditionally and sees the good in everyone. With her by my side, there’s nothing I can’t face. The proposal was one for the books. I was so nervous my hands were soaking wet! I even almost put the ring on the wrong hand. But the second she said "yes," all that nervous energy turned into pure happiness. It happened during my graduation pictures — everything just felt so right. She looked more beautiful than ever, and I knew there was no better moment to ask her to spend forever with me. This is just the beginning of our story, and we couldn’t be more excited to celebrate the next chapter with the people we love most.
