From Ames to Forever,
Our Story

For those who don't know the whole story, it started at Iowa State in 2021 — two people who clicked instantly, and never found a reason to be apart.

​

A few beloved cats, a growing bourbon collection, and more Cyclone tailgates than we can count later, we've built a home in Beaverdale filled with good food, good drinks, and the furry companions who make it complete. Somewhere along the way, it started to feel like forever.

​

Then came the "birthday dinner" that turned out to be something bigger. Seth got down on one knee at the World Food Prize — the very place we'll say "I do." A complete surprise, entirely us, and we can't wait to write the next chapter with all of you there.
