Every love story has its unique beginning, and ours started with the matchmaking efforts of our best friends, D'lanie and Brock. For months, they would tell us how perfect we’d be for each other, insisting we had to meet. It took a little convincing and some calendar coordination, but finally, over Christmas 2021, we made a plan: a triple date to a Predators hockey game in January 2022. When game day arrived, we immediately hit it off. The hockey game became background noise as we dove into conversation—mostly about real estate, of all things! By the end of the night, it was clear we needed more time together. We set up our first solo date shortly after, and the rest, as they say, is history. Fast forward nearly three years, and we’re living a life we once only dreamed of. We’re planning our wedding, made even more meaningful by the love and support of our beautiful families, who met for the first time this Thanksgiving in Tennessee—and got along like they’d known each other for years! As we prepare to say “I do,” we’re also bringing our shared vision to life: building on our land, raising chickens, ducks, goats, and, of course, Mr. Graham. Together, we’re excited for the future—building our own little family, growing in faith, and embracing a life filled with love, purpose, and endless opportunity!
