While Garrett and Christi didn't start dating until their senior year of high school...they went together for most of their high school dances.

Christi and Garrett have spent the last several years in Virginia in college (Christi at Liberty University and Garrett at Virginia Tech). While they haven't been able to see each other every week, these last several years of dating have had many great memories.

On December 21, 2023, Garrett asked Christi to marry him on top of a beautiful overlook behind Christi's house. This was the same location he had asked her to go to prom with him in their junior year of high school.
