We have known each other our whole lives thanks to our parents! Our dads have both been buddies for as long as they can remember and both sides of our families have been intertwined since then. I bet you can imagine how happy they were when we finally made it official.... LOL! Max first came to see Bethany play golf in Battlecreek for her WHAC conference championship (Where he became her good luck charm after she made 1st team that year)! Our first real date was of course on the golf course at Carrington Hills. There is still some confusion to this day on who won, rather who LET someone win ;) After our first date we pretty much became inseparable. While we had school and work going on we managed to see each other whenever we could. After a year of living with Max's sister & husband, we finally found our perfect little home to start our life together that we moved into in April of 2024. After 6 months of living in our home, Max decided to pop the question! He knew that it had to be a surprise, so he discretely had some of Bethany's coworkers plan a fake event at work so he could propose on the Red Wings practice ice at Little Caesars Arena. She OF COURSE said yes!
