Our Wedding

Our story began nearly five years ago, when Kalee was just 17 and still in high school, and Jonathan was 19 and freshly graduated. Like any true Gen Z love story, it all started on Snapchat. To this day, we still have a little disagreement about who fell first. Kalee insists Jonathan was interested first, considering he was the one who continued to pursue her. Jonathan, however, will be quick to remind everyone that Kalee was the first to admit she "liked him."Regardless of who fell first, one thing was certain: we fell in love quickly, and we fell in love deeply. From the very beginning, there was something different about our relationship. We were practically inseparable, and it didn't take long for us to realize that we had found something truly special. In fact, Jonathan told Kalee he loved her the very first time he kissed her! While we were young, we both knew in our hearts that this was the love we wanted to hold on to for the rest of our lives.Looking back, we can see God's hand in every chapter of our story. What began as two teenagers falling in love has grown into a relationship rooted in faith, friendship, and a shared desire to serve the Lord. Through every season of life, God has continued to shape us, strengthen our love, and teach us what it truly means to love one another with patience, grace, and selflessness.One of the greatest blessings of our relationship has been the opportunity to grow not only alongside one another, but also closer to Christ. From growing up together to serving side by side in children's ministry, we have discovered that some of life's sweetest moments come from serving the Lord and loving others together. What a gift it has been to watch the person you love grow into the person God is calling them to be.Now, nearly five years after our story first began, we have the incredible blessing of celebrating our wedding on the very same day our relationship began. The anniversary that once marked the beginning of our love story will now mark the beginning of our marriage. What started as a promise between two young hearts will become a sacred covenant before God, as we vow to love, honor, and choose one another for all the days of our lives.We have had the joy of growing up together, and now we cannot wait for the privilege of growing old together.Above all, our prayer is that our marriage will always reflect the love of Christ, that our home will be built upon Him, and that our lives together will bring glory to His name.We are so thankful for the story God has written thus far, and even more excited for all that He has yet to write.
