Chandler and Clayton first crossed paths in Columbus, Indiana in 2019 during their company’s week of onboarding. Though they lived in different cities at the time - Clayton in Columbus and Chandler in Nashville - they remained new friends from afar. During COVID, Chandler returned to Columbus for an extended stay and their friendship deepened. By the end of 2020, the relationship blossomed and they started dating in February 2021. That led them across more than 4 years of milestones and adventures, and in June 2025, Clayton asked Chandler to marry him in Praiano, Italy in front of a 16th-century church overlooking the Amalfi Coast, and with two dear friends as witnesses.
