Nelson Atkins Engagement Photos // Courtney + Lukas

Can this be topped? .....How long have these guys known each other? Well... Courtney and Lukas met when Lukas was 11 months old, and Courtney was just a few hours old. True story!

These two come from Mom's who have been best friends since middle school, and those ladies joked for years — what if our kids marry each other? Courtney and Lukas grew up together and have a lot of memories where both were in each other lives, especially as kiddos... but back then, boys were gross, so Courtney mostly talked to Lukas's sister.. Years on down the road, after these two had kind of lost touch, Courtney's Mom saw a photo of Lukas on Instagram and showed it to Courtney.... and just like that... she slid into his DM's and the catching up began which led them to a first date, to a relationship, to nearly 7 years together already, to a proposal in the same exact spot they shared their first kiss... to, come 2023, a wedding and the start of a marriage!
