Jenna and Reese first crossed paths in 2022, not long after Jenna moved to Utah. They quickly became inseparable—friends who brought out the best kind of wild in each other. Together, they were unstoppable: dancing, laughing, and embracing those chaotic, beautiful early "new adult" years with a reckless kind of joy only best friends could share.

Jenna had a habit of calling Reese at 10:00 at night with one of her spontaneous ideas.

“Come dance with me,” she’d say.

And Reese? He always showed up—grinning, ready for whatever adventure the night might bring.

In April 2023, something shifted. Their friendship started to blur into something sweeter, something deeper. They weren’t quite sure what to call it yet—but it sparkled with all the magic and nerves of the “maybe more than friends” phase.

Then came a trip to Mexico with friends. Sunset walks, beachside laughter, stolen glances. Somewhere between dance floors and quiet moments, they fell—completely and unmistakably.

When they returned home, Reese asked Jenna out on their first official date: a double date to see The Super Mario Bros. Movie in theaters. Their second date took them hammocking in Provo Canyon, where they spent hours talking and just being together under the trees.

By then, Jenna was completely hooked—and so was Reese.

They were truly, beautifully in love.
