Our Story

Some people say they met their spouses in grocery stores or through mutual friends. Though, very little can say they got to know their life partner at a local ice cream shop in their hometown.

Jordan and Emma met at Tony's Ice Cream in Gastonia, NC, in 2018. Emma began working at the establishment as a nice, sweet summer job in between her freshman and sophomore years at Appalachian State University.
