Jake and Megan started dating in high school. Megan was a Sophomore and Jake a Junior. They actually didn't know each other from school, but were introduced by Megan's cousin Nick who worked with Jake during the Summer of 2018. Shortly after being introduced, Jake and Megan started dating in December 2018 and have been inseparable from that moment on.

Since graduating from high school, Jake has been working on becoming a licensed electrician. He is currently thriving in his electrical apprenticeship program with a local union in Detroit. He also continues to farm with his family. Jake bought a house in Webberville in December 2023 where they live with their two year old black lab named Bo (Bocephus). Megan has been working and going to school for Radiology Technology at LCC. She enjoys working in the hospital, and is excited to complete her program in May 2025.

In August 2024, Megan and Jake took a trip to the Upper Peninsula where Jake proposed during a hike to Lake of the Clouds in the Porcupine Mountains. It was an incredible trip including Tahquamenon Falls, Pictured Rocks, cliff diving at Black Rocks in Marquette, a mine tour and even seeing the Northern Lights on Lake Superior. It was a well planned proposal and a trip they both will never forget! Since getting engaged, Megan has moved in with Jake and Bo. They are both very busy with work, school and now wedding planning, but are so excited to TIE THE KNOT in June!
