Our Wedding

Our story began back in middle school, when we were around 11 years old. At the time, Jake was actually "dating" one of Maggie's friends, but Maggie had other plans for their friendship. She made the first move by getting to know Jake, and when he was single again, things between us started to make a little more sense. By eighth grade, at just 13 years old, Jake finally asked Maggie out. We started as friends, quickly realized there was something more between us, and the rest is history.Over the next 13 years, we grew up together in every sense of the word. We went from being kids figuring out life to adults building one together. Through all the changes, challenges, and milestones, we've always been a team. One of the biggest examples of that came during college, when Maggie worked up to three jobs at a time so Jake could focus on school. It's just one of the many ways we've supported each other and built the life we have today.Along the way, our family grew by two little people who changed our world in the best possible way. Becoming parents to Joey and Olivia has been one of the greatest adventures of our lives, and our favorite chapter yet. What started as a friendship in middle school has turned into a family, a partnership, and 13 years of memories that we'll always cherish.Jake proposed shortly before Joey was born in 2022, and now, we're finally getting ready to say “I do!” The timing feels just right. With Joey and Olivia old enough to be part of the celebration, we get to share this next milestone not just as a couple, but as a family.After 13 years together, two kids, and a lifetime of growing up side by side, we're excited to celebrate the journey that brought us here and all the adventures still ahead. We can't wait to celebrate with the people who have been part of our story along the way!
