We’re getting married!

Connor and Montana met at their first week at Millikin. This was known as Millikin's Welcome Week for new freshman students. Montana and Connor sat down at the same table to enjoy the evening and connected through soccer. They started dating later that fall. The next years included greek life, lots of soccer games, late nights studying, and growing their relationship day by day. The time finally came where they were about to graduate and determine their next steps for the future. Connor and Montana headed to Chicago, IL for work and got their first apartment together! They enjoyed plenty of Cubs games, different breweries, ice cream shops, and soccer games. After a year and half together in the city and 5 years of dating, Connor and Montana joined the Malmens for a family vacation that ended so special. The trip was to Rome, Italy and Connor decided to propose to Montana in the Orange Gardens in Rome. The beautiful background was filled with the city of Rome and St. Peter's Basilica.
