Brianna and Jared first met during freshmen year biology lab at UW-La Crosse. Although Jared insists that Brianna was the one to sit next to him, Brianna was actually at the lab table first. Jared happily chose to sit down next to her when he walked in to the lab a little later with his crutches. Although they didn't start dating right away, they kept in touch for almost a year before Jared came over to watch Colton's season of the bachelor with Brianna and her roommates. They eventually started dating on April 19, 2019 and almost five years later, Jared proposed. The last (and very fitting) question he asked during the proposal was, "Will you accept this rose?" to which Brianna of course answered, yes.
