Bride
I was born in California but raised in Arizona. I had Sarah when I was 20 then moved to Missouri to be with my mom at the age of 21. I then moved to Kansas and started working at the prison in 2020. I currently have a 6 year old daughter who will 7 in Feb. of 2025. I am definitely a dessert freak (his words), true crime addict and probably one of the nosiest people ever! You can usually catch me out shopping (wishing I had his credit card), my nose in a true crime book, making a new dessert to try or watching movies with my family.
Love you
Our
story
Our story begins on a warm summer day, on the inside of a barbwire filled fence around 2:00PM. Yep, that’s right we met in a prison! Now, I know what you’re thinking ‘wow she can’t be that crazy’ ‘she was in prison, a hardened criminal!’. Well, let this sink in; we both worked at the prison! (This is our favorite way to tell strangers how we met. It really gets them going, lol)
The first time Josh and Emily met was when Emily relieved Josh at work. They had a small conversation while Josh walked out of work. After Emily got off of work and checked her phone she had a friend request on Facebook and a new message. From Josh, saying he hopes her shift went well. Emily will never forget the feeling she felt when she opened and responded to that first message.
Our first date was on December 7, 2021 at about 5:00pm. Josh knocked at Emily’s door. To her surprise when she opened the door she was greeted by this extremely handsome dressed up man holding blue and white daises in his hand. Emily gathered up her purse and wallet and off they went. They went to Texas Roadhouse and basically ordered the exact same meal. (Steak with loaded mashed potatoes) You know you found the one when you order the same meal at a steak place! After enjoying their meal Josh took Emily to one of his favorite spots in town. The pool hall. They played pool for a few hours while they talked, laughed, and had a drink. After that they went to Emily’s house to sit on the couch and have those real deep uncomfortable conversations that no one wants to have. Emily and Josh learned a lot about each other that night. And it is and always will be a night Emily and Josh will never forget.
Groom
I was born and raised in Topeka, KS my whole life. Die hard Chiefs fan (had those season tickets for Super Bowl 54!!) You can always catch me either at the gym, at home watching movies or playing video games or getting fancy with love of my life for a night out on the town. If you see me with a drink it will most likely be a Bud Light (wishing it was a Blvd Wheat or Blue Moon) because water is lame.
forever
