Our Story

Our love story began back in September of 2021 when we matched on tinder... Some might say that meeting through tinder is untraditional, but little did we know that we would become each others very best friend. Brandon drove up from Anderson University to Purdue where we spent the whole weekend together. We went to the movies, got pedicures, took a tour of campus and most importantly, got to know each other. 2 weeks later, I drove down to Anderson where he asked me to be his girlfriend.


In the months following, we enjoyed lots of first together. I attended his very last football game, and very soon after, he came to Purdue to watch me dance the last game of the season. We enjoyed Thanksgiving and Christmas together. Following Christmas, Brandon surprised me in Nashville with my family for the Music City Bowl. Going into our spring semester, we continued visiting each other at our differing Universities and continued learning so much about one another. In March of 2022, we took our first road trip to Tennessee together.


In June of 2022 while on a wine tour celebrating my birthday, Brandon asked me to marry him! Since then, we have both finished our senior year of college and graduated with Bachelor Degrees. We are very excited for the next chapter of our life and hope you all will join us as we step into marriage together.
