Jarrett and Arianna first crossed paths at an Alife retreat, a young adults gathering, in April 2022. Arianna approached Jarrett, feeling like she recognized him but unsure from where—until she realized they had attended the same college! Hoping to make a new friend, she said hello. To her surprise, Jarrett immediately recognized her—not from college, but because they had matched on a dating app two years earlier, though they had never spoken. In September 2022, Jarrett decided to make the first move and slid into Ari’s DMs (in true Gen Z fashion), asking to hang out. Ari, however, didn’t realize it was meant to be a date! They went mini golfing, followed by a dinner Jarrett had thoughtfully reserved. They ended up talking at the restaurant until it closed. By January 2023, they officially started dating, bonding over their shared faith in God and passion for serving their community. Since then, their relationship has been centered on their faith, shared love for food dates, binge-watching 24, and countless other adventures. The highlight of their journey came on July 7, 2024, when Jarrett proposed to Ari in a hot air balloon, with their families watching from below—a perfect, sky-high moment to celebrate their love.
