Nathan and Bekah met on the night of December 8th 2022. Bekah was performing in a Christmas concert for Houghton College at Browncroft community church. After her performance, she was mingling in the lobby with family and friends discussing the show when a curly haired gentleman approached her. Nathan, who works at Browncroft community church was in awe of her performance, complimented Bekah and gave her his number. After a few short weeks of talking on the phone and getting to know each other they went on their first date on 12/23/22. They met at a coffee shop, enjoyed some great conversations and after a few more dates they officially started dating on 1/22/23. Since they have been together, they have spent a lot of time with each others families, enjoy traveling together and Nathans cooking of course. Bekah accepted her first teaching job and moved to Hilton, NY to be closer to Nathan at the end of Summer 2023. Being closer and spending more time together they quickly learned how much they want to spend the rest of their lives together. On 12/23/23, exactly one year from their first date, Nathan took Bekah on a beautiful walk to an overlook to "test out his new drone", got down on one knee with a ring box that lit up and asked Bekah to marry him. Without any hesitation, Bekah said "YES" and has been radiating joy and happiness since the big proposal. Nathan and Bekah are so excited to share their big day with you in August 2024!
