Our Wedding

Our love story began after working side by side at Nissan and truly took off at the Smyrna Bowling Center. On November 8, 2019, we went on our very first date—a breakfast at Metro Diner in Murfreesboro—and quickly discovered how natural life felt together. Since then, we’ve created countless memories through trips, everyday moments, and shared milestones. We celebrated our fifth anniversary at Pickwick Landing, and on that same special date—November 8, 2024—we got engaged lakeside, surrounded by the place and moments that mean so much to us. We can’t wait to continue this journey together and make many more memories in the years ahead.
