While in college, Lauren needed a date to her sorority's Christmas semi-formal dance in December of 2020. She asked a few friends of hers and they were able to send photos of some of their single guy friends to her. Lauren quickly chose whom she thought was the most desirable bachelor of all the photos, and it just so happened to be Dylan!

The long awaited Friday night of the semi-formal finally arrived and Dylan and Lauren hit it off. As the night went on, they realized that they both were attending Dylan's fraternity's Christmas party the next day!

Saturday soon came about and they agreed on an official dinner date the Sunday after. Dylan was so happy to have found an older woman just before Christmas break, but Lauren had other plans. Instead, Lauren didn't talk to Dylan the whole break! Regretfully, Dylan decided to move on from the short 3 day romance they had shared.

It wasn't until January that Dylan's interest was sparked again when he saw that an acquaintance of his had taken a photo with Lauren while celebrating her birthday. Dylan began to rethink his decision to move on from her and decided to text her to ask for another date to celebrate her birthday.

And the rest is history. The two officially began dating on February 27, 2021 and after many life changes and special moments in between, Dylan asked Lauren to marry him on August 24, 2024. They now patiently await July 12, 2025 so that they can tie the knot and celebrate with you!
