Our Wedding

About Us

We met in 2015 and started dating in fall 2017; yes, during senior year of high school, and yes, we're still together, so hold your applause (or your judgment).

In 2019 we packed up and headed to Utica, NY to finish college together. What followed was several years of exams, late nights, and the kind of relationship stress-testing most people don't attempt until their thirties.

Early into college life we adopted our cat Bert and then Acorn, who have been (mostly) loyal companions since.

In 2020 we moved back to Corning, NY, then eventually landed in Alexandria, VA in 2023 to continue growing our careers and building our life together.

Nine years later, we've decided to make it official.
