Ariana & Jaylin met in high school and began their relationship on July 22, 2020. They spent the first two years of their relationship 400 miles apart as Ariana stayed in their hometown to attend college, and Jaylin attended Middle Tennessee State University to play football. In January of 2023, that distance was cut in HALF when Jaylin transferred to Virginia Tech. With only 197 miles between them, they were able to visit each other more often and it made their long distance relationship much easier :) On July 19th, 2024, Jaylin asked Ariana to marry him at a beautiful garden in Blacksburg, Virginia. They are both so excited to spend the rest of their lives together!
