Our Story
How We Met
Though we've know each other since we were 4/5 (see photos tab), we didn't start dating until after high school. Conveniently, Kristen moved to Chicago for college shortly thereafter. After a number of years of long-distance through college, our first jobs, and grad school, we are excited to finally live together back home in Pittsburgh and to celebrate the last ~10 years together this summer at the Oak Lodge.
The Proposal
We got engaged at Cuyahoga Valley National Park. We were hiking at Brandywine Falls, known for its "bridal veil" long cascade. It was drizzling, but that meant there were less people than the average weekend. We stepped off of the main path to explore when Brandon popped the question. Kristen's mom pointed out that the trees around us formed a heart - check out the photos tab to see if you agree!
