It all started when Cayleigh Ana followed Zack on Instagram after deciding to attend Appalachian State University. Once she got to Boone, the two hit it off—and pretty quickly became inseparable. Zack graduated that same year with a degree in actuarial science and moved to Charlotte for an internship. After lots of road trips and weekends spent visiting, Cayleigh Ana realized long distance just wasn’t for her. Since her classes were online, she decided to make the move to Charlotte and found a nanny job in the city. Fast forward four years filled with laughter, growth, and love—Zack surprised Cayleigh Ana with a proposal at one of their favorite places, the Whitewater Center. It was a cold, rainy December night, but it was perfect. And now… we’re getting married!
