Lindsey Kitterman & Barton Wyatt

Competition brings out the best in everyoneand maybe that was the reason
Lindsey convinced Barton to play on her recreational kickball team. Lindseys brother
and sister-in-law, whod known Barton at Clemson, introduced Barton to Lindsey after
he moved back to Greenville from Jackson Hole, Wyoming. They started playing
kickball a few weeks later, and began dating shortly after. After three years, Barton
knew it was time to propose to Lindsey. Knowing shed be in shock, he made sure they
had a drink before telling her all the reasons he knew they were meant to be, and then
got on one knee. The couple was married at Central United Methodist Church in
Lindseys hometown, Florence, SC, on New Years Eve. It was a festive day with the
wedding and the New Year, and to the delight of the numerous Clemson fans in
attendance, Clemson qualified for the playoffs for the National Championship that same
day. The couple still lives in Greenville in the same house where Barton proposed.
Lindsey works at Greyrock Accounting and Barton is operations manager at Carolina
Recycling Company.

Abby Moore & Samuel Keith

Typically, caves are not where you go looking for true lovebut in all fairness,
Abby and Sam werent necessarily looking for love when they met while spelunking in
Tennessee. The couple-to-be were guests of a mutual friend, and they ended up
bonding over their mutual love of German Shorthair Pointers. After six weeks of casual
texting and hangouts, Sam asked Abby on an official dateand six months later he
asked her to be his wife. Abby had always dreamed of getting engaged in Paris, but as
that wasnt possible, Sam picked the second best option: a sunset proposal atop Paris
Mountain. The couple dreamed their wedding would be simple, natural, and local; they
wanted people to know that it wasnt just about them, but also about the God that
brought them together, and the people they loved. The wedding took place at The Dutch
Barn in Greer and featured a food truck and Abbys dads homebrewed beer. The happy
couple live in Greenville, where Abby works as a freelance writer and nanny, and Sam
is finishing his graduate degree at Clemson.

Kathryn Salley & Michael Dodd

Although Kathryn and Michael attended Furman at the same time, they didnt
meet until almost a decade after graduation. Another pair of newlywed Furman alumni,
Will Glenn, Michaels best friend, and Kerry Glenn, Kathryns sorority sister, introduced
the couple. Six months later, with the help of Kathryns best friends and family, Michael
planned a surprise proposal at High Falls, NC. After a family hikeKathryns dog Beau
includedMichael got down on one knee at the base of the trail and asked Kathryn to
marry him. The ensuing celebration comprised tacos, margaritas, and the couples
closest friends and family. The couple held their ceremony at First Baptist Church in
Easley, followed by reception at the Commerce Club where guests enjoyed breakfast-
for-dinner and live music by Steel Toe Stiletto. After a confetti exit, the couple took off
for their Jamaican honeymoon. Michael and Kathryn are both self-employed at The
Dodd Law Firm and Right at Home in Simpsonville and Spartanburg, respectively. They
currently live in Greenville.

Erin Lee Daniel & Noah James Vandiver

Erin and Noah first met in January 2015 after connecting through the online
dating site, Plenty of Fish. Each was the only person from the site that either had met
face-to-face, and after just one date, they were hooked. On a chilly night a short eight
months later, Noah took Erin for a romantic dinner at The Galley on Lake Hartwell.
While waiting on their table, the couple walked down the docks and arrived at a bench
where Noah had previously placed a photo book. After flipping through pages of photos
of the first date, birthdays, vacations, and other special moments from the past eight
months, Erin arrived at the last page, which displayed a picture of her engagement ring
and the words, Will you marry me? As Erin sat in shock, Noah dropped to one knee
and officially popped the question. The couple held a small ceremony at First
Presbyterian Church in Greenville, SC.
