Nick and Morgan’s love story began in the most unexpected way: through Xbox. In 2016, they connected thanks to a mutual friend, Joshua Evans. What started as casual gaming sessions soon turned into a deep friendship. They spent hours chatting on Xbox, video calling, and texting each other every day.

Two years later, in 2018, Nick and Josh decided to make the trip to Maryland to meet Morgan in person. The trio spent the day exploring the charming town of Havre de Grace, soaking in its beauty and forming unforgettable memories. For Morgan, it didn’t take long for her feelings for Nick to grow—and luckily, the feeling was mutual.

On January 12, 2019, they officially began dating. Despite the distance between Maryland and Virginia, Nick and Morgan made their relationship work. Nick frequently drove up to Maryland on weekends to be with Morgan, and she visited him and his family in Virginia whenever she could. They balanced time between each other, their families, and friends, savoring every moment together despite the challenges of a long-distance relationship.

By November 2020, Morgan decided to take the leap and move to Virginia to live with Nick. They were so deeply in love that they couldn’t wait any longer to start their lives together under one roof.

Fast forward to December 2024, after six wonderful years of building their life together, Nick planned a romantic getaway to Williamsburg, Virginia, during the holiday season. Morgan had always wanted to see Williamsburg at Christmastime, and Nick knew this was the perfect setting for a proposal.

However, things didn’t go quite as planned. Nick carried the ring in his pocket all day, but they struggled to find parking in the bustling town due to a special event. After hours of searching, Nick shifted to plan B: a drive-through Christmas light display. But to his dismay, there wasn’t a good spot to pull over and propose.

Defeated but determined, Nick and Morgan returned to their hotel room for the night. As Morgan rummaged through her bag to find her shower items, Nick took a knee behind her. When she turned around, there he was, holding the ring and asking her to spend forever with him.

Their story might not be traditional, but that’s what makes it so uniquely theirs. From meeting on Xbox to a hilariously imperfect proposal, Nick and Morgan have embraced the quirks and humor in their journey. They’re excited to spend the rest of their lives creating more fun, odd, and unforgettable memories together.
