'the unforeseen path to 'i do''
THE ROAD THEY HAD TRAVELED DOWN WAS LONG–
having met one another on the sixth grade school bus. Yet, in the midst of the distracting window views, ‘forever and always’ had not been solidified in either of their vocabulary quite yet, taking any sort of romance or love at first sight off the table. Surely a school bus wasn’t the place one would meet the person they wanted to spend the rest of their life with. But for Caroline and TJ, it was. They just didn’t know it yet.
“He’s been my best friend for a long time, so I just knew I wanted him around forever.”
THE WEATHER
during their engagement shoot was unfaithful–but not enough to take away the joy they had for one another. The wind and the rain prevailed, but the location held its significance.
“We got engaged in Columbus, so the experience was incredible and so fun.”

From their first date at COSI and revisiting the same spot five years later, TJ got down on one knee along the Scioto River at sunset with no one around but the two of them to take in the surreal moment.
When bearing the rocks of their relationship, Caroline confidently states it’s all verbal between the two of them.
“Communication is key–we can overcome anything as a team.”
