Our Love Story

Château Mills Wedding

Once upon a time, in the most unexpected yet beautifully orchestrated way, Amberly and Jason’s paths crossed through the digital world. Amberly first saw Jason in a video of his minister installation ceremony, shared by mutual friends. There was something about him—his presence, his spirit—that intrigued her. Without hesitation, she sent him a message on Facebook Messenger, unaware that a simple inbox would change both of their lives forever.

Their first conversation was nothing short of magical, stretching into a three-hour phone call that felt like mere moments. From that night forward, their connection grew through an endless exchange of memes, inside jokes, and playful banter—a love language all their own. For a year, they danced around the idea of something deeper, until one evening, Jason asked Amberly if they could FaceTime. That call was the beginning of something undeniable, something real.

Distance may have separated them, but love had its own plans. Jason invited Amberly to Kansas for her birthday, playfully telling her to “see how he was living.” Their first date at Country Club Plaza’s Cheesecake Factory was sweet in more ways than one, but it was their second date that stole Amberly’s heart. At the Jazz Museum in Kansas City, Jason took the stage of The Blue Room and serenaded her with Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald’s Cheek to Cheek, dancing with her in a moment straight out of an old Hollywood love story. It was the kind of romance you read about—the kind you dream of.

For Jason, the most special moment came during a nighttime walk around Topeka’s state capitol. With the city lights glowing around them, they laughed, posed for impromptu photos, and created their own adventure. It was then that Jason saw Amberly truly relax in his presence, and in that moment, he glimpsed their future—a love filled with joy, ease, and the kind of partnership that makes life feel like an endless adventure.

Together, they have built a love story woven with faith, laughter, and the certainty that they are meant to walk through life hand in hand. Now, as they prepare to say “I do,” they invite you to celebrate the next chapter of their forever.
