It all started as two athletes on the way to practice at Salem High School, fast forward to a pandemic love story…

Sydni and CheDarious (CD) met in high school while each of them were on the way to practice after school. Throughout high school and college they maintained a cordial friendship.

Sydni graduated from Armstrong State University. CD played football and graduated from Kennesaw State University. Throughout college Sydni and CD kept up with one another mostly through social media.

Fast forward to 2020, the year of the pandemic the two reconnected and began hanging out.

As everyone knows it wasn’t much to do in the pandemic, everything was shut down. Sydni had just gotten a new dog and the 3 of them took weekly trips to the dog park.

Once the world started opening back up the couple began going on dates. Valentine’s Day 2021 CD asked Syd to be his girlfriend.

March 2021 they took their first trip to Cancun together for Syd’s 26th birthday, and CD’s first time out of the country – full circle moment! LOL.

The couple began traveling, growing together, and began thinking and talking about plans of marriage.

Summer 2024, they moved in together in Kirkwood with their dog child – CeeJay!

August 1, 2024 CD got down on one knee, with the most perfect proposal.

Here, they are today planning a wedding in the same place they took their very first trip to!
