Our Story

"He was a boy (from Gobles),
she was a girl (from Russia),
can I make it any more obvious..."

Logan's recollection: Lil and I met through church back in 2019. We became instant friends. We were in the same life group and ran in similar social groups. We really got to know each other in coffee shops over multiple games of chess and coffee. We shared many long phone calls discussing anything from our faith, politics, theology and life. I had finally found a woman who could challenge me intellectually. There are many things that we have in common, such as both being 5’s (enneagram), our passion to find the answer for the question why and moose track ice cream. But more importantly we have challenged each other to grow. It is never easy when people can see your insecurities, but you know that you have something special when you find someone to grow past them with you. Lil and I first learned to be friends, how to communicate and work out our differences. We chose our friendship again and again no matter how frustrating it got sometimes. So, I knew that this was someone that I could choose and have choose me again and again for a lifetime. It is a wonderful thing to find the love of your life, but it is a greater thing to find your best friend. I knew that there was no one else I would want to spend my life with.

Lilia's recollection: There are very few people who can truly challenge me. Logan is one of them. I remember meeting him back in 2019 and thinking this guy is not at all what he appears. Over the next following months, I got to get to know a man who had an amazing passion for God, people, and the most selfless person I had ever met. In time we became close friends, and like all meaningful relationships we had our ups and downs, but I was always impressed at how much effort he put in working towards building communication and working out our differences. We were a team, even if we did not know it at the time. Entering a relationship with someone like Logan, is like planning a heist for a year before executing it, every detail is thought out and analyzed at least three times, if not more. This man does not do anything half-hearted. Most of our early friendship consisted of coffee and games of chess while we spent hours talking about everything and anything. It is hard to pinpoint when I realized that I loved Logan to a specific memory or date, for Logan is an easy person to love. However, I can honestly say from the beginning I knew he was different and little by little I knew that I wanted to play chess with him and no one else for the rest of my life.

The day started with Logan picking Lilia up and taking her to breakfast at her favorite breakfast spot in the city, Morning Belle. Followed by a walk in the park where he had first asked her out. As they were walking the trails that they had grown to love, they came to a bridge where someone had formed a heart out of rose petals. He got down on one knee and proposed. He had hired one of their photographer friends to be there to capture the event. Afterwards he brought her back to her apartment where his family and her boys were there to celebrate with them. That evening he took her to an AirBnB, where their friends were waiting in anticipation to celebrate with champagne.

Wedding Party

Hi! I'm Annie! I am the most important person to Lilia next to God, Logan, and her children. Lilia is my roommate of two years, best friend, and sister for life. We met at church a few years ago and never looked back! My favorite memories of Lil involve heart-to-heart conversations in our living room as we sipped our green tea. She is my favorite person to do life with. I am forever grateful for the privilege of knowing her and to celebrate her happily ever after as Mrs Kincaid.

Logan's deep contemplation is convicting and his goofy antics are contagious. These were the building blocks that lead to our fast friendship over the years. Our misadventures have ranged from getting reprimanded by Canadian Border Control to recreating an outdoor adventure that flunked out of the Boy Scouts for Younglife skits. But I am incredibly excited to watch as he embarks on his next adventure with Lilia and honored to be able to play a role in it.

Lilia and I met when we were very small around the age of seven. Over the many years Lilia and I have grown beyond just being best friends, she is without a doubt my sister. We have been through many of life's ups and downs together. Through it all we have always been there to support one another even if we were states or countries apart. Lilia is someone whom I have always treasured the times spent reflecting on what life has given each of us. My best memories of Lilia is truly being able to catch up while eating lots of food or simply talking over multiple cups of coffee. She is the person who I can share my most personal moments with and I am extremely grateful to be part of this new journey with her and Logan.

I met Logan sixteen years ago, and have had the privilege of watching him grow into the man he is today. From a crazy energetic kid in Sunday School, to studying economics (not his Degree) just because he finds it fascinating. Logan is a deep soul and the fact that I call him one of my best friends is a huge honor in my life. Through the years we've gone on missions trips, led worship, castrated cows, snowboarded, been to countless concerts, traveled, ministered, cried, played hours of pin pong, laughed, and have studied God's word together. Through everything, I know God has put Logan in my life as an example and that has become even more evident now as his life is joined with Lilia's. Their relationship exudes wisdom, joy, and love. I cannot wait for countless more years of friendship, and to see their relationship continue to blossom.

I met Lilia at church in a Bible study and we were prayer partners. I immediately connected with her and we became instant soul sisters! We have been there through tough times for each other and I am so grateful for her love and support and friendship. I feel like I have known her for all my life. I am not only blessed with her friendship but am grateful for the connection our kids have made through play dates together. I have had the privilege to watch her and Logan‘s relationship start from friendship, to dating, now to engagement! I am so grateful to have seen it from the beginning and be a part of their beautiful journey.

I remember Logan pulling up to the house we were moving into with all of his belongings in a horse trailer saying, “don’t worry I washed all the poop out.” In that moment, I certainly would not have predicted that Logan and I would bond the way that we have. But sure enough.. after many nights of bedtime stories, waving through some windows, intentional conversation, and plenty of rosacea; Logan has become one of my closest friends. I could not be more honored to be by his side as he commits to spending the rest of his life with the woman he loves.

Ever since I met Lilia, she has been a light in my life. She is someone who is always there for her friends, loves them deeply, and reminds them of their faith. Lilia is someone that I can talk to about the most personal aspects of my life, and the only person that I let wax my eyebrows. I treasure my friendship with Lilia and all of the memories that we have made together, and will continue to make. I can’t wait to watch her get married to the love of her life, Logan.

I met Logan through Young Life in college and we clicked immediately. While we were able to joke around and have a good time, we could also pivot into deep life topics without skipping a beat. Logan walks a funny line of joyfully laughing his way through life while also deeply studying life's biggest questions. And I'm confident that range will serve him and Lilia well in marriage. From smiling and enjoying the moment to planning and preparing what's to come, Logan will be a wonderful husband and I'm excited to see the happy marriage him and Lilia craft together!

I met Lilie through church and noticed right away that she is a genuine, friendly person! We became friends instantly, and since then have shared some wonderful times together. From walking in the park to dinner and game nights, I always love our time together! Spending time with Lilie is refreshing and I’m so thankful to have her in my life! I am so lucky to stand beside her as she marries the love of her life, and I look forward to supporting Lillie and Logan as they grow together through life!

I met Logan at Mommy’s church. I think he is a good man and I like that he is going to be my Dad. I like that he always plays with me. He is the best. I like that he makes machines, one day I want to make machines. I like that he takes me golfing in the summer, he is really fun and I love him so much. He is really kind and I like it when he reads to me. I like riding electric scooters with him. I hope that we can ride bikes together this summer. Mommy feels good about him and that makes me feel happy. I like that he makes Mommy happy. I am glad that he is going to be apart of the our family.

When Logan brought Lilia over for the first time, I was so excited to meet who is now my new sister. Getting to know Lilia over the last year has been such a fun journey that was only made possible by a global pandemic ...this reminds me how God always uses situations for good! She is such a beautiful soul with a generous heart. Being Logan's older sister, I have also been protective and curious about who he would choose to do life with, because he is real catch (even aside from my bias), but it's clear Logan and Lilia are so complimentary and their relationship is full of love, joy, and patience. I could not be more excited for this life they are about to build and family they are about to become. I cannot wait to celebrate with them in a night so special that we will never forget!

Logan has been there with me for some of the biggest moments of my life. We've had crazy nights with hangovers that we'll never live down. He's wise beyond his years and maybe a bigger gamer than me. He'll drive you to the airport at ungodly hours. Logan is the type of friend anyone would be lucky to have in their life. I'm fortunate enough to get to call him my brother. Logan is the little brother I never knew I needed and I'm proud to stand by him as he starts this next chapter of his life with Lilia.

I met Lilie a couple years ago through a mutual friend and we clicked instantly. It was was like talking to a friend you haven't see in forever and are able to pick up right where you left off. She walked into my life right when I was needing a true friend. I can get together with her and laugh and talk about anything and everything with her. It has been a true blessing getting to know Lilie and see her and Logan grow and build a life together. I'm so excited for them and know they're going to be a "relationship goals" couple!

When Logan and I met in college, he was the older guy most of us looked up to. His humor endeared him to me, and his wisdom drew our friendship deeper. Even before I moved to Grand Rapids, knowing Logan was already there made the transition less daunting; he embodies comfort and trust in ways I still can't understand, but am very thankful for. Even still, he's at his best with Lilia and I couldn't be happier for them. It's a privilege to be part of their big day!

Lilie and I met as leaders at a church camp and instantly clicked! Those nights were filled with laughter and singing which continue to fill our time together! On the 3.5 hour ride to camp and home we got to enjoy each other’s company. We got to talk about all the things going on in our lives and her unique life that she has experienced so far. We also got to bond over belting Disney songs on the ride home along with all of our church group. God used that week of camp to work wonders within the lives of students and create bonds between the leaders so we can continue to grow. I am grateful for a role model such as Lilie to help deal with boy drama to becoming more of a Godly woman. I am also grateful for the balance that Logan brings to her life while loving her whole heartedly. Can’t wait to see how they continue to grow together in this next step of their journey!

Logan and I met at an interesting point in both of our lives. Through YoungLife, we were able to begin a friendship that neither of us saw coming. Logan has a good-natured sense of humor- one that is always poking deep enough to feel, but soft enough to smile afterwards. Or just burst out laughing. Logan has given much of himself for the sake of my life & growth. From small talk to God talks, the impact that Logan has had on my life is something I discover more & more. To witness Logan be joined together into this new life is a blessing to be apart of because Lilia is receiving such an incredible man. Cheers to the both of you!

Lilia and I met in the summer of 2019 at a young adults retreat in Big Rapids. We went on a paddle board ride together and ended up staying out on the lake talking about anything and everything. We were instant friends. As someone who was relatively new to the Grand Rapids area, I have been more thankful for my friendship with Lilia than she will ever know. Lilia is strong, kind, loving, smart, and an incredible friend. I have learned so much from her in the few years I have known her. She is someone who you know will be there for you no matter what. I will always remember all of our adventures – the laughs, the serious talks, the celebrations. And I am so excited for all of the adventures yet to come. I am honored to get to stand up by Lilia on this special day, and I can’t wait to see where she and Logan go as they journey their way forward together.

I was blessed to live with Logan for a year in Grand Rapids, and this story sums up our relationship pretty well: Logan walks into my room and says, "Hey Google, play 'You Raise Me Up by Josh Groban'" then 45 seconds later I am on his shoulders, spinning in circles then crying in laughter shortly afterwards. Logan is deeply loyal and gladly puts others ahead of himself. He has a calmness and stillness about him that instantly relaxes anyone around him. I've been telling him for years that he is going to be an amazing husband one day. I'm glad to be a part of that day with him and Lilia.

Lilie is the perfect combo of fun-loving and down-to-earth. She is incredibly wise, deep, hospitable, and talented... she’s the woman version of “jack of all trades.” :) We met while chaperoning a youth camp, sleep deprived and spirited in blue for our team. Her bright smile and confident demeanor drew me to her friendship, and while she hasn’t worn her blue tutu since, her bosslike (that’s a good thing) qualities remain. Deep talks and good laughs with her truly enrich my life. I love Lilie dearly and am SO looking forward to see this happy couple take on the world together!

I met Logan at our campus Church while attending MSU, which began an unlikely friendship. I was young in my faith, insecure, and probably spent too much time venting to him about girl problems. Fortunately he stuck with me. He was a steady, Christ-centered friend that I could consistently lean on. Logan was (and still is) lighthearted and witty, but was also ready to point me to the Gospel when I needed it--and I needed it a lot back then. For the rest of college, my faith grew and so did our friendship. Years later, Logan and I were roommates when I met my now-wife, Lauren. 2 years after that, he stood in my wedding. Now, 2 more years have passed and I’m blessed to be able to be a part of his marriage to Lilia. He has been a faithful friend and I know he will be an even more faithful, steadfast husband.

Lilia and I met when I had just moved to Grand Rapids. My husband and I were hosting a small bible study, and she joined our group. Lilia and I became instant friends! From long walks around the city to late nights drinking wine and watching K dramas, she has brought so much fun and adventure to my life. I have loved seeing her and Logan blossom into a beautiful couple. I am so excited for them to start this journey together and wish them all the best.

First and foremost, I believe I have to take credit for helping Logan solidify his feelings for Lilia.
It was a cold winter day (love was not in the air yet) when I first met Logan at small group through our church. I definitely came to appreciate the quick wit from Logan, and upon learning he graduated from MSU, decided this was a man that I was going to come to know more. Fast forward to the following week, and as I’m about to sit down next to my new amigo, another member of the small group arrived: Lilia. Now, Lilia was quick to introduce herself to me and my first words back to her weren’t “my name is Kyle”, but rather “Wow, you have a beautiful name!” At that time, Lilia did a quick eye glance from me to Logan (who was behind my shoulder and heard everything) and it just got a little quiet for a couple seconds before the next conversation picked up. Shortly after this encounter, I get a call from Logan and Lilia that they are dating! I remember feeling super excited for them both! This is why I believe I get to take credit for helping Logan solidify his feelings! I knew Logan found a winner, as did Lilia. Together, God will make them stronger and continue to look over them as he blesses their future!
