Autumn and Jake’s story began with a casual introduction through Jake's cousin and his girlfriend, who set up a double date to the movies. Jake, typically on the shy side, didn’t say much during the film, but Autumn wasn’t put off. By the end of the night, she decided to make the first move and gently took his hand, resting her head on his shoulder—small, simple, but meaningful.

Not wanting the moment to end, Jake walked her to her car. Little did he know, his cousin and his girlfriend were sneakily watching from behind a bush, eagerly awaiting to see if anything would happen. Mustering up the courage, Jake asked for Autumn’s phone number, setting off a whirlwind of texts and calls. Even though he spent a lot of time working out of town, their connection grew stronger with every message and conversation.

Whenever Jake came back into town, they’d spend their nights driving around, chatting, and getting to know each other more. One evening, after a fun bowling outing with his cousin and his girlfriend, Jake gathered his courage and asked Autumn to be his girlfriend, a moment they both remember fondly.

Two years later, Jake knew Autumn was the one. With a heart full of love, he proposed, and together they stepped into the future, ready to share a lifetime of memories.
