About Us
Welcome to our wedding website!
We are Luke and John, and we are thrilled to share our love story with you. Our journey began in St. Louis the day after Christmas in 2016, and it's been nothing short of extraordinary ever since. In the early days, we faced the challenges of a long-distance relationship, with Luke diligently working through medical school while John supported him every step of the way. Our commitment and love for each other only grew stronger as we navigated these early hurdles.
In the summer of 2018, we took a monumental leap of faith and decided to move in together when Luke started clinicals in Reno, Nevada. This marked a significant turning point in our lives, and it brought us even closer together. Our love story has been a rollercoaster ride, filled with ups and downs, but it's precisely these experiences that have shaped us into the couple we are today.
As we reflect on our journey, we're filled with gratitude for the incredible people we've met along the way. From our beloved home in St. Louis to the friends we've made in places like California, Rhode Island, Nevada, and everywhere in between, each of you holds a special place in our hearts. Your love and support have been instrumental in our lives, and we can't wait to celebrate this next chapter with you all. Our wedding day is a testament to the love and connections we've built together, and we are eager to share this joyous occasion with the amazing individuals who have become such an integral part of our story. Thank you for being a part of our journey, and we look forward to celebrating with you soon!
