Grace and Elliot’s love story began in the summer of 2022, brought together by Hinge and a shared internship stint in Washington, D.C. From their very first date, the connection was undeniable—they fell in love almost instantly and spent the entire summer inseparable, exploring the city and building memories together. But as all great rom-coms go, summer ended, and Grace returned to Texas while Elliot stayed in D.C.

In 2023, Grace decided Texas was great, but couldn’t compare to Elliot (or D.C.) So, with her dog Beau in tow, she moved back.

Then, in May of 2024, Elliot proposed to Grace on the rooftop of the restaurant where they had shared their first date. Surrounded by family and friends, they embrace a promise of a shared future filled with love.
