Dustin and Lauren met in July of 2018 when they were neighbors in some college houses through a church organization. They became friends right away and soon enough on September 18, 2018 they began dating. Throughout their relationship, Dustin and Lauren have loved spending time together while hiking, watching movies and shows, cooking, and spending time with their families and friends.

On September 18, 2020, which was their 2 year anniversary, Dustin told Lauren that he hired a photographer to take their pictures as part of an anniversary present. About half way through the photoshoot, to her surprise, he got down on one knee and asked her to marry him, and she said yes (of course)!

Dustin and Lauren can't wait to begin their future together and look forward to celebrating with family and friends on September 18, 2021 at their wedding. This date is special to them because it is their 3 year anniversary of being together and will be the beginning of their life as a married couple!
