Seven years ago, Jess was unwinding with a glass of wine, perhaps two, and scrolling Instagram when a photo caught her eye. Grant, featured on a hunting outfitter’s page. To this day, it still feels wild that the post even appeared as she didn’t subscribe to western hunts. Still, something about that moment felt worth the chance, so she hit “follow,” quietly hoping he might be single. As fate would have it, just a few weeks prior, Jess had been out with friends at their favorite speakeasy when one shared how she had met her husband —instagram! What started as a simple follow turned into many conversations. Eventually, they decided it was time to take a leap. With thousands of miles between Tennessee and Arizona, they chose Fort Worth, Texas. For Jess, it was love at first sight. Grant might say it took him a little longer to realize just how special it was — but if you know Grant, you know taking a chance on an southern girl across the country wasn’t exactly his usual move. And yet, he did, even hopping on a COVID red-eye flight to make it happen. Looking back, it feels like they didn’t meet by chance at all. Somehow, everything lined up exactly as it was meant to— a conversation at a speakeasy, a random Instagram post, a red-eye flight— all quietly leading them to each other. Today, they are building a life alongside their beautiful little boy— proving that sometimes the best love stories begin in the most unexpected ways.
