Smith and I first met at a Halloween party thrown by mutual friends on October 30, 2020. Smith sat down by me, introduced himself, and started a conversation. I was shy, so Smith thought I didn't like him. However, as the night went on, I started to feel more comfortable and our conversation lengthened. We began talking daily after this and had our first official date in downtown Opelika a few weeks later. We have been together ever since.

On June 29th, Smith and I enjoyed a romantic dinner at Pearl & Horn in Pensacola. After dinner, we walked on the beach to see the "ghost" ship that had washed up on shore. We were completely alone, and the weather was perfect. Smith suggested taking a photo and I agreed. He placed my phone in his shoe and unbeknownst to me, set up a video. After multiple "photos" had been taken, he said we needed one more. We went to pose for the photo, and as I was walking away, Smith got down on one knee. Neither of us can remember what he said. It still feels like a blur. Smith slipped the "one of a kind" ring on my finger, of which he designed specifically for me. Of course I said YES, and here we are now, getting married!! Smith chose our wedding date. This date is significant to us both because it is almost exactly four years from the day we first met.

We are both so grateful to you, our friends and family, for your love and support. We cannot wait to celebrate our wedding day with you!
