Zach and Lauren met each other in college at Drake University. While Zach has a romantic story of seeing Lauren in a bar before they "officially" met and feeling love at first sight, Lauren first met Zach in their physics class (Lauren's worst class). Thanks to a dating app, the rest was history (and Zach even helped Lauren pass physics)!

When Lauren got into vet school, they moved to Minneapolis with their dog (Surly) and cat (Lawrence) to start their post-graduate life together. In Minnesota, they added another dog to their family (Hook), embraced the freezing cold, and survived the hell of vet school side by side.

Now, they've spent the past 6 years together and find themselves in the Chicagoland area counting down the days until they're married. They couldn't be more excited to celebrate their love with all of you!
