Our Story

Who would have thought a first date at Jackson Avenue Pub in 2017 would lead us here almost ten years later? We may have been young when our relationship began, but we knew from the start that we had something special. We’ve grown through so many wonderful stages of life together, and wouldn’t have wanted to do it any other way.

Our time together has been filled with unforgettable moments: going to college together at U of I, seeing countless concerts (The Lumineers will always be our favorite), traveling to our special places like Siesta Key and Jordan Lake, and moving in together in Chicago. Most recently, our trip to Jordan Lake became even more special when Justin proposed with both of our families there to celebrate.

We wouldn’t be the couple we are today without our incredible friends and family, and we are so excited to start our next chapter with all of you on September 18!
