Story
Kevin and Kendall met during Homecoming Week at UC in 2015 - Kevin was a freshman and Kendall was a sophomore. They started a friendship and took a Business Law class together, but fell out of touch for a few years. They rekindled their friendship in the spring of 2018 after Kevin was back from a six week European adventure and Kendall was on her way to Hilton Head and Paris (It goes to show that travel is a big factor in both of their lives and they enjoy being on the move!). When the traveling ceased and the summer co-ops started, they began dating and the rest is history!
Kendall and Kevin had the best Senior year possible... yoga classes every morning, football games in the President's Suite, movie nights in U Square, lots of walks around campus, and some amazing spring graduation ceremonies. After school, they started their full-time jobs, moved out of Clifton, and moved over to the west side of town.
In July 2020, Kevin proposed during a summer visit to Hilton Head Island which has been a special spot for both of them since going for the first time in January 2019. Since the engagement, Kendall and Kevin have enjoyed wedding planning and creating their dream home.
They have loved traveling together the past few years and spend time thinking up their next must-sees around the country and world! Kendall and Kevin love spending time with their families and friends and can't wait to see you all at the wedding festivities!
Tidbits
What's your favorite activity together?
It's hard to choose... we can't pass up biking at Lunken Airport, swimming at Overhill, or going to UC football games!
What's the best meal you have eaten together?
One of our favorite things to do is try out new restaurants around Cincinnati! Our favorite meal wasn't about the food, though. We loved going to Taft's Ale House on our first date, but we couldn't even tell you what we ordered!
What's the most memorable trip you have taken together?
Hands down, our trip to Hilton Head Island for our engagement.
We’re on the same page about
What's important to us. And that's spending time with the people we love most. (You all and each other!)
We are regulars at
Skyline, Thai Nam Tip, and LaRosa's! We know (and request!) our favorite servers at each!
We take pride in
Our projects! We love DIY, whether it is in the woodworking shop, in the attic fishing electrical wires, or on the Cricut.

What will the weather be like?
Welcome to Cincinnati, all of you out-of-towners (we know there's a lot of you)! The weather here can be funny, especially in May. We may see a chilly end-of-winter day or a sweltering start to summer. We always recommend layers no matter what the day holds! Be sure to check your weather app during the week leading up to our big day.
I have a question not answered here; how do I contact you?
