Jake and Sydnie met in the Fall of 2020. While no restaurants were open and date options were minimal, they spent their first date chatting and getting food-to-go in Sydnie's car. Jake spent hours trying to impress her with his witty remarks and clever jokes, and Sydnie was so nervous that she only took two bites of her dinner. So much time went by that Sydnie's roommates were concerned she had been kidnapped since Jake was a stranger she had just met.

Fast forward to several more dates, meeting each other's families, and learning more about each other, their relationship began to progress quickly. On October 15th, 2023, Sydnie had planned for them to get their first professional photos taken. Little did she know, Jake had not only been conversing with the photographer, but had also won a contest through Wedding Day to have the whole thing captured on video. Sydnie had no idea - not even when a microphone was put onto Jake's shirt. Now, they are planning their wedding, and are ready to take on the rest of their lives together.
