Our Story

 Jeff and Jenny were introduced by Cathleen Thore, now Cathleen T. Jones, at North Greenville University.  Cathleen was there recruiting for SummerShine, a summer resort ministry that Jeff and Jenny had both done before and planned to do the following summer.  The 3 spoke briefly, but that was all.  UNTIL that summer spent in Myrtle Beach.  Jenny was the Assistant Activities Director and Jeff was a SummerShiner.  Really nothing happened then either.  Jeff taught Jenny to surf(kinda) and they got to know each other from a distance.
After a Labor Day reunion in Myrtle Beach Jeff and Jenny decided to "keep in touch."  It made sense because they went to the same school.



 Well, it didn't take long and Jeff and Jenny began to DATE!  November 25, 2008 is the official date :)  They were in love by February! A Summer spent apart in 2009 while Jeff served as SummerShine Activities Director in Myrtle Beach and Jenny as Activities Director in Virginia Beach brought them very close together.  School days were fun, they enjoyed studying together and Thursday nights out with the crew.



After the good news of Jeff being accepted into MUSC's Physical Therapy program, Jeff popped the question!  On April 18, 2010, He and Jenny hiked to the top of Raven Cliff Falls to find a tree that Jeff had carved "Will you marry me" in.  She said yes!






May 2010 Jeff graduated and moved to Charleston to start medical school!  The wedding planning officially began.  Long distance for a year was a great test for Jeff and Jenny.  Phone conversations can only go so far, every once in a while one of them would drive to the other end of SC to visit.  Obviously, it all worked out...
In May 2011 Jenny graduated from NGU, moved her stuff to Charleston the next day and came back for a quick wedding week.





Jeff & Jenny got hitched on May 14, 2011!  It was a wonderful day they will never forget.

From May 2011 to October 2012 Jeff & Jenny lived in Charleston!  They loved hanging out with their small group from Seacoast Church, surfing, going to the dog park, and eating ANYWHERE in Charleston.  Jenny traveled a lot of weekend to photograph weddings and clients in Greenville, SC.  She also worked at Robot Candy Co. downtown. 




From October to December of 2012, Jeff and Jenny lived in Lancaster at the Williams family home.  Jeff worked in Rock Hill for his clinical rotation.  During this time they loved spending time with the Williams family, and getting to enjoy to Lancaster area.




They moved to Greenville Christmas Eve(2012) and will be there until Jeff graduates in May.  Jeff will spend March and April in Dallas for his final clinical rotation!
