Sierra and Brett met in the fall of 2018 at the University of Nebraska-Omaha, where their dorm rooms—Sierra with her softball teammates and Brett with his baseball teammates—were just down the hall from each other. They quickly became friends, often eating together in the cafeteria. As the group dwindled, it was just the two of them, and though Sierra thought they were just friends, Brett considered each dinner a date.

After months of growing closer, Brett finally asked Sierra on their first official date to Cold Stone Creamery. By April 2019, they were officially a couple. Their relationship continued to grow, even when the COVID-19 pandemic hit in the spring of 2020, forcing them to live apart with their families. Despite the distance, their bond remained strong.

In 2023, they took the next big step—buying their first home together in Omaha. That fall, Sierra was accepted into the Physician Assistant program at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, and Brett continued to work hard in his sales job recieving a big promotion!

On March 30th, 2024, with their five-year anniversary approaching, Brett planned a special proposal. After watching Sierra’s brother play golf in Topeka, Kansas, Brett convinced her to stop and admire the blooming tulips. Under a beautiful gazebo in the garden, Brett got down on one knee and proposed. Surprised and overjoyed, Sierra said yes, and they celebrated with their families who were waiting nearby.

Sierra and Brett’s love story will come full circle in May of 2025 when they say their vows on a beautiful beach in Cancun, Mexico. Surrounded by family and close friends, marking the beginning of the next chapter of their lives together. It will be a day filled with love, joy, and unforgettable memories, as they start their journey as husband and wife in paradise.
