Our Wedding

Christina and Rex met during their freshman and sophomore years of college at The University of Memphis at a house party that one of Christina's sorority sisters was throwing in the fall of 2018. Christina almost didn't go because she had just gotten off work shortly before the party was supposed to start, but her friend and roommate Molly (now a bridesmaid!) encouraged her to go and that they would have fun, even if they didn't stay for very long. Thank goodness they ended up going to that party, because if not, Christina and Rex may have never met!After a few months of hanging out and "accidentally" running into each other on multiple nights out on the town (RIP to The Bluff- iykyk), Christina and Rex began dating in April of 2019 and have been inseparable ever since!They count themselves lucky that they have been able to grow up alongside each other for the past seven years. Time has brought so many changes from their 19- and 20-year-old selves to now, but what has always remained constant and true is how much they love each other. The Lord has been faithful to them over the course of dating, and they ask that you pray that He will continue to bless them as they enter into married life together.1 Corinthians 13:4-7"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”
