We first met at church camp in 2015. I (Julia) thought Mark was so cute so they pushed me over to take a picture with Mark. Little did we know…

We began talking on the phone after I signed my scholarship with CBU. Mark saw that I would be going to college close to him so he added me on Snapchat and we began talking. He went to Panama Beach for the summer with Fuge camp. I went to visit Mark while he was at the beach. We began dating August 4, 2019. After moving me to college Mark decided to move to Mississippi to be closer. We have been inseparable ever since.

Mark proposed at the Botanical Garden in Memphis on March 25, 2023. He planned the most special night. When he proposed he did not even let me say yes he jumped up so fast because he was nervous!
