Though they grew up just 30 minutes from each other in the DC area, Ben and Caroline’s paths didn’t cross until they both became Yellow Jackets at Georgia Tech. Swimming had been a lifelong passion for both of them, and it was on the pool deck where their story truly began.

One of their earliest memories together happened the very first weekend Caroline arrived at Georgia Tech. After practice, there was Chick-fil-A biscuits. Being the gentleman he is, Ben helped Caroline separate two biscuits. From that moment, they couldn’t take their eyes off each other.

They officially started dating in January 2017 and soon welcomed two furry family members, Cheeto and Milk. Their love for adventure grew, and music festivals became a cherished part of their relationship, with New Year's Eve turning into their favorite holiday to celebrate together.

As their bond deepened, it became clear how perfectly they complemented each other. After graduation, Ben and Caroline bought their first home in Atlanta, where they continued to build their lives. Their passion for travel also blossomed, as they explored new destinations and cultures together. In November 2023, they embarked on a dream trip to London and Paris, where Ben romantically proposed atop the Eiffel Tower.

Now, after 8 years of shared memories and adventures, they will officially tie the knot on June 13, 2025, and begin their next chapter as husband and wife.
