Lauren and Brian met in June of 2022 at a game bar in St. Louis, where they played a variety of fun games against each other. Despite Lauren winning four of five games, Brian walked away with the grand prize, an amazing woman he could spend the rest of his life with. In the three years since that date, their lives have changed in many ways. They bought a house, raised a puppy, hiked and traveled to beautiful places, and experienced the joys of challenges of life together. And although they've grown both as a couple and as people, not much has changed since that first first date. Lauren still wins most of the games, and Brian is still a big winner with Lauren as his teammate.
