Like all great modern love stories, ours began with mutual friends and a little well-placed matchmaking. Tori and Alyssa (who worked together and clearly understood destiny when they saw it) decided we needed to meet and made sure our worlds collided, or at least our phones did. What started as casual conversation, quickly turned into hours of talking and laughing.

After some time getting to know one another, we finally made plans to hang out in person. In true Louisiana (and Brandon) fashion, our first official adventure was frogging. Yes, frogging. Somewhere between the headlamps, the water, and the chaos, Brandon watched Hannah fearlessly grab frogs like it was just another Tuesday and had the life-changing realization: that's the one. (No, seriously, that was his thoughts.)

From that moment on, it was clear this wasn't just a fling: it was the start of something special. A little unhinged, a little outdoorsy, and a whole lot of love. And that was all she wrote.
