Call it fate, destiny, or very cliché... we met in math class! We had known of each other through our respective a cappella groups in college but never really interacted. That was until one very early morning in our statistics class, back in 2017, we happened to sit next to each other after a change in our usual seating arrangements. We got to talking after class and agreed to study for our final together. That summer we met up a few times to hang out and get to know each other and decided to become a couple on July 31, 2017. Our love for each other has only grown since. We fell for each other hard and fast, but we both knew it was meant to be. Since then, here are a few things we have shared: going mini-golfing, vacationing in the Dominican Republic, a Rose family cruise to the Bahamas, a magical trip to Disney World, a half-cross-country trip from Virginia to Texas, surprise visits, eating so much good food, countless date nights, holidays, sorority dances, living long distance for over a year, and finally moving into a place of our own in Texas where we're currently living. We have grown so much both as individuals and as partners to each other over the years and have learned a great deal about love and commitment. Through it all, we have remained kind, respectful, loving, appreciative, and committed to one another in every way possible. A love like ours is hard to come by, but we are grateful every day to have found each other. We are looking forward to a beautiful future together, and a lifetime filled with happiness and kindness.

Our Love Story

Our Story

Bridesmaids

"Victoria and I met in 7th grade when we were the last two hanging out at the playground. I got my arm stuck in between two poles and she had to help me get out. She's my best friend, my sister, the Barack Obama to my Joe Biden (inside joke), and no one else could handle my crazy like she can."
~Michelle

Michelle Ott

"Victoria made my life infinitely better by running home to me in Alpha Sigma Alpha and choosing to be my little, as well as one of my forever best friends. She has filled our friendship with sunshine, laughs, and love! Thank you, Victoria, for your continuous support and unwavering loyalty. I’ll forever stand by your side."
~Gwen

“My amazing big! I met Victoria the night I ran home to ASA. She was the best and didn't care at all when I spilled tacos all over our sorority house. She has been the kindest and most genuine person-- helping me grow, calm down, and laugh. I love her to the stars and back.”
~Kyra

Kyra Hemrich

“This amazing woman was the reason I ran home to ASA! There were so many signs that told me she was my person from our shared elephant obsession to our love for Disney movies. I had never felt what it was like to have sisterly love until this beautiful girl walked into my life! I will forever be thankful for the love and support she has given me. Victoria is truly my big sister and role model! I love her endlessly.”
~Megan

"My beautiful sister Victoria and I met the day I ran home to Alpha Sigma Alpha. She spoke to our class and welcomed me home. She has kept me grounded and has always been there for me as a friend, a sister, and more. She is my family."
~Bree

Bree Wilson

"I knew when I ran home to ASA that my life was going to change, but little did I know how drastic the change would be until I met Vic. She has bettered me as a person and not a day goes by that I don’t stop and think about how grateful I am that she's in my life and has taken me under her wing. I seriously cannot imagine my life without her in it because she has become so important to me in such a short amount of time. I love her endlessly and am so happy for both her and Jacob."

“I have known Jacob for most of my life— almost twenty years. When he moved to Yorktown with his family Jacob only came out at night to play basketball by himself. One day his family had a yard sale and Mamma Kim (Jacob's mom) made him go down the street with the kids from the neighborhood to make friends. From that day on we have been inseparable. We have made some unforgettable memories together like playing Naruto at the church and pool, playing toontown almost 24/7 for like a year, spending a whole summer playing Maplestory, going to Disney World twice, going to OBX and Lake Gaston with each others’ families, and so many others. We have been together through the highest of highs and lowest of lows. We like to say that we are stuck together like a ball and chain. We have shaped each other into the people we are today. I do not know where I would be or who I would be without my best friend Jacob.” 
~Richard

Richard Harrell

"I think the first place we met was on the bus when I just moved in fourth grade. We just casually started talking like we had known each other for awhile. We're literally the same person. I mean we even have the same name! Jacob is one of the nicest people I will ever meet and I'm honored to call him my best friend." 
~Jacob

Jacob Quesenberry

"Jacob and I met in a computer science class during my first semester at CNU in the fall of 2014. We did not become friends right away. In fact, we seemed so different at first that I didn't even think we would become friends— at least not outside of class. As time went on we realized we actually had quite a bit in common and enjoyed a lot of the same pastimes and hobbies. Throughout the years Jacob became a brother to me and his family became my own. He's truly one of the kindest and most genuine people I've ever met and I'm lucky to call him a friend." 
~Pedro

Pedro Correa

"I met Jacob at CNU and then again through Pedro. We played League of Legends and World of Warcraft together. Despite that, we've remained good friends and have been described as 'joined at the headset'." 
~Richard

Richard Harrah

"Jacob and I first met when we roomed together freshman year at CNU. We quickly became good friends because of how open and friendly he is. So much so our room door was always open for friends and strangers to come and hang out."
