As a senior in high school, Aaron was getting excited to follow his dream of attending the University of Alabama like his grandfather. Once he found out how much the out-of-state tuition rates were, plans quickly changed and he began to look at in-state options. Unsure of where to turn, Aaron asked his longtime friend, Barry, where he was choosing to go to school. Barry suggested applying to Longwood University, a small school in Farmville, VA. The deadline had past to apply, however a terrible storm that came through the area had led to a one week extension for applications! Thankfully, Aaron was accepted and began studying at Longwood in the fall of 2007.

Jennifer, being as organized as she is, had already known she would attend Longwood University and was excited about studying Psychology. Aaron and Jennifer would eventually cross paths on campus and become friends. Aaron transferred to Virginia Tech the following year, but thanks to social media, Jennifer and Aaron were able to keep in touch. After six years since they first met, Jennifer reached out to Aaron to see how he had been. Several days of catching up ensued and Jennifer informed Aaron that she had an Aunt and Uncle conveniently living near Aaron! A week later they went out on a date in Arlington and the rest is history.

After two years of pushing through a long distance relationship, Aaron finally got a job in Richmond so that they could continue to grow closer and experience a relationship in the same city. Less than a year into being together in Richmond, Aaron suggested that they go back to where they first met and visit Longwood University together. Little did Jennifer know, this would be the day that would change their lives. Aaron had planned on exploring the campus and then ending the afternoon down on one knee. As they arrived to the campus, nerves kicked in so Aaron cut out the “exploring” part and went straight to the planned location. On November 28^th, Aaron asked Jennifer to marry him back where they first met. After Jennifer said yes, Aaron informed her that they had a “reservation for two” at a local restaurant.

Aaron and Jennifer e love traveling, visiting local wineries and breweries, spending time with family, completing home projects, and Aaron is a photographer himself! They love saying the words “Husband” and “Wife” and are grateful how naturally everything has fallen into place within the first week of marriage. They are excited to settle into their new home and making memories as Mr. and Mrs. Dishner!

Below are some favorites from their wedding day, congrats again you two!!
