In the warm, sun-drenched days of 2016, Kellie and Chase crossed paths at a Memorial Day weekend party. During the first, and only, time Chase asked Kellie to be his beer pong partner, they spent the evening laughing, sharing stories, and forming a bond that would change their lives forever.

Over the course of 2017, their connection grew stronger. They started spending more time together, not just at parties, but in quieter moments too. They'd stay up late, talking and laughing. Their friendship blossomed into a deep and beautiful romance, and they realized they were meant to be more than friends.

Their love story took a significant turn when Kellie found out she was pregnant. The news was both a surprise and a blessing. They welcomed their first son, named Bryson, into the world in 2018.

Time passed, and in 2021, they expanded their family once more with the arrival of their first daughter, Riverlee. The challenges of raising two children tested their relationship, but they faced each hurdle together, their love growing more resilient with each passing day.

By 2023, Chase knew he wanted to spend the rest of his life with Kellie. One beautiful summer evening in Chincoteague, he surprised her with a heartfelt proposal on the beach at sunset. He got down on one knee, presented a shimmering engagement ring, and asked her to be his forever. With tears of joy in her eyes, she said yes.
