Arianna is originally from Michigan and Bryan is originally from Alabama. You might already know where this story is going, but here is how the story of us came to be: They met in Tuscaloosa, Alabama during a global pandemic in 2020. Bryan went from being quarantined in his home in Nashville to finally re-opening his golf cart transportation location in Tuscaloosa. Arianna and Bryan were both single and had their focus on everything except dating. Arianna and her friends loved going out on the weekend to watch Alabama football games at bars on the strip. Arianna and her friends would take Joyrides around campus frequently, often ending up at a bar called Houndstooth. Unknowingly, Bryan also loved watching Alabama football games there, since he could watch his golf carts ride by! Bryan saw Arianna and couldn't help but say something to her. They ended up watching the game together that day and hit it off instantly! Bryan asked Arianna to go on their first date to Chuck's Fish in Tuscaloosa in September of 2020. She got to meet Dega, Bryan's german shepherd dog, and after hanging out that night for the first time there was an instant bond. Over the following months, Bryan started taking Ari to different bars, restaurants, football games, concerts, and even Nashville to meet his closest friends. Neither of them knew where this was going but knew it was going somewhere. In the summer of 2021, Bryan helped Arianna move to Spring Hill, Tennessee to live with her sister's family. She ended up spending more time in Nashville, where Bryan (and her job) was. They quickly became inseparable and Arianna slowly started staying in Nashville more and more so they ended up moving in together. Later that summer, Bryan and Arianna went to pick up a new puppy named Ozzy, a miniature Australian shepherd puppy, in northern Tennessee. This expanded their pack from three to four and it was one of the best decisions they've ever made! Later that year, Bryan expressed interest in traveling with Arianna and they went on a trip to New York City to ring in the new year. If a couple can travel together, then they can stay together! Together they have traveled to New York, Las Vegas, Florida, Michigan, the Caribbean, and of course throughout Alabama and Tennessee. It made them get to know each other better and bonded their love through conversations of the future and what it may hold... Fast forward to February 2023, when Bryan and Ari were going to spend a long weekend at a cabin in Gatlinburg with around 20 of their closest friends. Once they arrived, friends encouraged them to look around the cabin and check out the scenery. To her complete surprise, Bryan proposed to Arianna on the balcony overlooking the smoky mountains. She said YES and they popped champagne all weekend long to celebrate. The love story continues with the excitement of sharing their wedding day with everyone who is near and dear to their hearts. We can't wait to see you there!
