Phew! We made it! Colleen & Billy are one of the many couples who had to reschedule due to Covid and finally got to celebrate their love this year!!! On August 14th, surrounded by their friends and family, Colleen and Billy became Mr. and Mrs.!

These two have been together since May 15, 2012 (will be 9 years this year!). Colleen was finishing up her freshman year at Edinboro University at the time. However, a mutual friend of the couple thought they would make a good match so he gave Billy, Colleen’s phone number. Billy immediately sent her a text message and they began talking back and forth for a couple of weeks. Colleen shares, “At one point, I remember Billy telling me that he thought we would be better off as just friends (LOL). That didn’t last long before we set up a “blind” date (Texas Roadhouse and a movie). And the rest is history!!”

The past 9 years have brought them through countless adventures, hobbies, road trips and camping, snowmobiling, hunting, making it a point to visit every county fair in the tri-state area, and the list goes on!

Billy proposed at Niagara Falls on January 5, 2019. They had planned out a June 20, 2020 wedding and then COVID-19 hit. Though 2020 turned out great as they welcomed their daughter, Hallie Layne Klenz, on December 28, 2020!

Check out their day below and wish them a happily ever after!
