We're finally getting married!

We first met each other in 5th grade and became high school sweethearts our sophomore year in 2012! Anthony was a bit of a troublemaker ;), so we drifted apart at the end of sophomore year. We found our way back to each other the summer before senior year when he asked me on a date to go fishing at a pond in his boat. We were smitten again after the date and have been together ever since! We enjoyed homecoming, prom, and graduation together before I went off to college at UNCC. Anthony followed me to North Carolina my sophomore year of college with his best friend John (our officiant) and we navigated the ups and downs of life and college together. After graduating from college and living together in the Carolinas with John for a few years, we decided to make the move back to Maryland to be closer to family. The time felt right, so we made the leap and bought a house together soon after! Through the troublemaking days in high school, the late night adventures in college, the moves, the hardships of life, and plenty of laughs, we became not just partners, but best friends. Now, after all these years (over a whole decade of dating!), we've built a life together and a love that feels unbreakable. We're so excited to continue this journey side by side as we get ready to say "I do" and start the next chapter of our story as husband and wife! #ThorneInMySideForever
