Our paths crossed a number of times before we started dating, thanks to mutual friends. Kianna had attended Brian’s probate to cheer for a friend and had no idea that her future husband was on that same line. All subsequent interactions were cordial but brief. In January 2019, a mutual friend invited both Brian and Kianna on a birthday trip to Montego Bay, Jamaica. It was there that they formed a genuine connection that has stood the test of time. From that day on, there hasn’t been a single month when they didn’t see each other. At the time, Brian was living in Tennessee and Kianna in Florida. Kianna moved to Georgia in March 2019, and they began to commute to see each other at least once a month. As we all know too well, COVID-19 hit and shut everything down in March 2020. Kianna lost her job and decided it would be a good idea to go to Tennessee for "a few weeks" until everything blew over and she could get her job back. Little did we know how much longer the world would actually be shut down. Brian and Kianna lived together from that moment on and eventually transitioned back to Georgia, where they now own a home together. In March 2024, Kianna’s birthday was rapidly approaching. Although, her only request was to not be in the U.S. for her birthday, she had absolutely no idea what Brian was planning. In the weeks leading up to her birthday, after many discussions about wanting to go on a trip but hearing no plans, Kianna started to insist that she WOULD be on vacation for her birthday, even if she had to go alone. Brian decided to take the bait and told Kianna that he had planned a trip to Mexico and that was all he would reveal. Kianna, excited but still curious, went with the flow and packed her bags. The morning of the vacation, Brian mentioned that he needed to stop by his parents' home to borrow their vehicle for the airport. When they arrived, both of his parents came out with suitcases, and at that moment, Kianna realized she had been set up. They all headed to the airport, and while checking in, Kianna noticed an airport code "PUJ." She then realized that Brian had more surprises in store and that they were actually heading to Punta Cana, not Mexico. When she asked Brian if there were any more surprises, he said no. Upon arriving at the hotel in Punta Cana, Kianna was soaking up the environment and updating her family about her location. Brian and Kianna then headed to a restaurant at the resort for lunch. As they walked down the hallway, a child and an older girl ran up to Kianna. She didn’t immediately recognize them as she wasn’t expecting to see anyone she knew in the Dominican Republic. Looking up, she saw many of her family members: both parents, her sister, aunts, uncle, cousins, and niece. Overwhelmed with joy and shock, Kianna embraced everyone, and they went to have lunch. Fast forward to Kianna's birthday night, March 21st. Brian mentioned there were dinner plans off the resort. Kianna thought nothing of it, as they often explore the island for dining options. They all took a bus to the restaurant. Upon arrival, Kianna's mom insisted they take photos near the front, which had a beautiful ambiance. They took photos for about five minutes before Kianna suggested they could take more after dinner, not wanting to delay their reservation. As they walked inside, it appeared the table wasn’t ready, so they went back outside to take more photos. Unbeknownst to Kianna, most of her family and Brian's were gradually slipping away while she was distracted with the photos. After finishing, Kianna’s mom asked her to follow her to the bathroom. As they exited the bathroom, Kianna began walking toward the back of the restaurant, thinking they were seated on the deck outside. As Kianna approached a curtain that separated the inside from the outside, it began to rise, revealing Brian standing on the beach in front of a sign that read "Marry Me." Kianna was once again completely shocked and, of course, said YES! ​
