Robert and Shelby met no other place than Buffalo Wild Wings in Frankfort, KY. One of Shelby’s lifelong friends moved to Frankfort after college & Shelby came to town to visit her friend and grab some dinner. Trey was practicing his golf swing (go figure) for a scramble he was playing the next day. Shelby decided to poke fun at the cute guy across the way and the rest is history. It’s been a wild ride since then, but they wouldn’t have it any other way. Since that moment everything has always led them to each other.

In June 2020 (five years after meeting) Trey & Bella were joining Shelby, her sister, brother in law, nieces and father for a family vacation in Florida. Trey insisted that they get pedicures and Shelby get her nails done before going; but it slipped the cracks with busy schedules. Shelby should have known at this moment but thought nothing of it. One evening everyone was getting ready for a delicious crab dinner (the family favorite) and Morgan, Shelby’s sister, insisted what she was wearing wasn’t cute enough and handed her something else to wear. This is not out of the ordinary since Morgan is the fashionista and Shelby has always bummed clothing when she’s going to events. Still, this is the second moment that Shelby should have known what was going on and still thought nothing of it. Trey’s intent was to wait until after dinner and ask Shelby while taking family pictures on the beach. As most things in life, this did not go as planned. Trey was such a nervous wreck he knew he couldn’t eat; and if he didn’t eat Shelby would know something was going on. Trey stood up right there in the restaurant got on one knee while Shelby blacked out and forgot to say yes. Hands down the best part was Bella realizing what was going on and running over to give hugs and ask if “we were married now” and tell us “she was just so happy”. After getting the proposal off his chest everyone was able to enjoy dinner and then go to the beach as planned for a few pictures.
