Jordanne hopped on the train to Chicago to meet up with a friend. It was late, so she threw on some jeans and a flannel, and was out the door. Little did she know the her friend invited her out so that she could meet Jojo. Jordanne noted that Jojo a little bit country himself, so he appreciated her outfit. They hung out and chatted the night away, but there was no kiss! After a somewhat hung over car ride home from Jojo the next morning, Jordanne was sure her chances were over. But as life would have it, Jojo was not deterred. They hung out a few times over the next couple of months. Finally after going out for Jordanne's birthday, she received that kiss. Fast forward, Jojo knew he wanted to propose shortly after he started dating Jordanne. He planned it perfectly, and even got a wingman involved - his family dog, Ace. Jojo tied the ring to Ace's collar, and had him sit when Jordanne came home. Jordanne chatted with Jojo for what felt like an hour before he began obviously staring at the ring on Ace's collar. Jojo could finally ask he the question he had been waiting for. He noted "I made sure the answer was yes before she called her mom to tell the news."

Jojo and Jordanne shared his beautiful family farm with me on one summer evening. They regaled me with stories of the time they both spent there, funny, romantic, and just life. Their young lab, Chip, joined us as we traveled to different parts of the property, enjoying nature and the sunset.

Thank you so much Jordanne + Jojo for having me to such a beautiful private retreat, and sharing stories of your love! I can't even wait until your wedding this August!
