Our Wedding

Steven and Heather met 3 years ago when Heather went to Ballinger Detailing for a car detail. Steven was working that day, and in the process of detailing Heather’s car he accidentally tore off some of her back window tint. Steven reached out to Heather via Facebook to offer to detail her car anytime for free and the rest was history!

Our Beginning

Steven and Heather started dating on July 18th, 2022. Their first official date was dinner at Red Lobster, and thus began their love affair with the cheddar bay biscuits.

First Date 

Steven proposed to Heather on July 19th, 2024 100 feet in the air in the bucket of a ladder truck at Marion City Fire Department Station 2. Steven told Heather they were there to see the ladder truck after it had been fixed and returned to the fire department. He also said that The Marion Star was going to be there covering the event and to try and look nice. He even had a good friend of the family, who is also a fireman, dress in street clothes and operate a drone pretending that he was from The Marion Star so that Heather would not get suspicious. Heather was absolutely taken away by the surprise. Being 100 feet in the air watching the sunset, how could you not say yes!
