Every great love story starts somewhere — ours just happened to begin with a swipe right. What started as a simple Tinder match quickly turned into something unforgettable.

Our first date was at Ballard Park in Tupelo, where we wandered and talked for hours, completely losing track of time. From deep conversations to endless laughter, it felt like we had known each other forever. That night, we ended up riding around for hours, talking about everything under the sun — and neither of us wanted the night to end.

Our first meal together was at McAlister’s — nothing fancy, just perfect in its simplicity. But it wasn’t long before we discovered our shared love for good food, especially at our spot: Takumi. That’s where Caleb introduced Maylee to soup dumplings, and they've been a staple ever since. (Seriously, we could eat them every day.)

Since that very first date, we’ve been inseparable. Whether we're adventuring, binge-watching shows, or just doing nothing at all — every moment is better because we’re together.

We’ve built a life filled with love, laughter, and dumplings — and we can't wait to start this next chapter as husband and wife.
