Our story began long before we even realized it.

We had gone to school together for years, walking the same halls and sharing the same small town, but somehow never truly connected. That all changed in the summer of 2018, when fate — with a little help from some mutual friends — finally brought us together. We ended up hanging out one evening, thanks to our friends who were dating at the time. Looking back, it felt like a double date that we didn’t even know we were on.

From the very first conversation, something just felt right. Even though we had never really spoken before, talking to each other felt so natural — like catching up with someone you’ve known your whole life. In just a few hours, it felt like we’d already lived a thousand moments together.

That summer turned into one we’d never forget. We spent more and more time together, usually with our group of friends, but always gravitating toward each other. Whether we were riding back roads, sharing laughs, or just being in each other's company, we realized how much we truly enjoyed being together.

When the school year rolled around, Eli was a sophomore and Sarah was a junior. We both knew deep down that what we had was something special — too strong to be just a summer memory or a close friendship. So on September 8, 2018, we officially began our journey as a couple.

Since that day, we’ve grown up together. We’ve created a lifetime of memories — from high school dances to road trips, late-night talks, and everything in between. We've been each other’s biggest supporters, best friends, and safe place through every season of life.

Now, years later, we’re stepping into a new chapter — as husband and wife. We’re so thankful for the road that brought us here and even more excited for all the adventures ahead.

-Love, the Simmons
