Drew and Hailey met at a Christian church event that was a singles mixer event in November 2023 (it was just as cheesy as it sounds). Hailey went to support a friend that didn't want to go alone and showed up 30 minutes late to the event. Drew saw her immediately as she walked in and wanted to talk to her all night. Drew was really hoping to meet someone at this event, and once he saw Hailey, she was the only girl he wanted to talk to all night. Hailey was oblivious. They ended up sitting at the same table for a trivia game and their team name was Chicken Dinner (not sure why) but they ended up winning the trivia (obviously)! The host encouraged the men to ask the women on a date if they were interested in any of the women, at which point Hailey promptly left the room to "go to the bathroom" to avoid this awkward moment. Drew was on a mission and followed her to the bathroom, but respectfully did not enter the women's bathroom and asked Hailey on a date. She said yes! They went on a date to Coopersmith's Pub and Brewing in Fort Collins the next week, and it obviously went well because they have been together since that day!
