In June of 2020 after a few swipes, Drake & Dreya matched on each other's Tinder profiles. They spent lots of time having fun and lighthearted conversations joking and getting to know each other.

They lived an hour away so when Dreya was in Evansville with a friend she took a chance to finally meet him & asked to hang out. Drake was hesitant at first but with a little bit of encouragement he finally agreed. They met for the first time at his childhood home where they hung out with lots of Drake's close friends.

From there they were inseparable, Dreya would drive up to Drake's almost every weekend to spend more time with him and get to know him better. They spent a lot of time hanging out with his friends & family, going boating with his brother, spending holidays together, & going on different adventures.

On September 2, 2020 after four months of talking, traveling to each other, & long Facetime calls Drake finally asked Dreya to be his girlfriend. Shortly after Dreya moved in with Drake and became apart of the family. From this point on they continued learning more and more about each other and their families.

Years later they decided it was time to get their own place and rented an apartment in Evansville close to family. Dreya thought that the home was missing something, and after weeks of convincing Drake, he allowed Dreya to bring home their beautiful Golden Retriever Maelee. She has been the best addition to their little family.

As more time went on and more memories were made finally on December 21, 2023, on vacation in Fort Myers Florida, Drake finally asked Dreya to spend the rest of their lives together! Drake & Dreya spent the past 5 years loving each other and growing together. They can't wait to get married and to celebrate their special day with the people they care about the most!

Q + A coming soon!
