A Love Worth Waiting For
From the innocence of kindergarten to the deep connection of adulthood, fate brought Ariana back into Darryl’s life when the time was right. She wasn’t just the woman he loved—she was his anchor, his supporter, and the person who inspired him to become the man he aspired to be, for himself and for her.
With Ariana came her son, a blessing he embraced wholeheartedly, stepping into the role of a stepfather with love and purpose. Together, they’ve built a foundation rooted in faith, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to one another.
For him, this is the love he’s always prayed for, the life God…along with Momma Kerri and his parents, knew he deserved. Every day, he chooses her, knowing there’s no one else he’d rather build a life with, face challenges with, or love for a lifetime.
Because their story isn’t just a love story—it’s the start of forever.
Darryl and Ariana got pictures taken of them, where they went to elementary school together, on Christmas Eve 2023, and that's when Darryl proposed!!
She didn't put together why they were getting pictures done on Christmas Eve!
This picture was before he proposed, she had absolutely no idea what was going on!
When she finally realized he was proposing!
This was the moment Ariana saw her friends and family standing there, holding a sign saying MARRY ME, as Darryl got on one knee! Realizing he had planned this photo shoot proposal!
She could barely get any words out of her mouth, she was overcome with so much happiness!
She was shaking so bad, in this photo!
She was in such disbelief that she had just gotten proposed to!
Darryl and Ariana's Engagement Photoshoot!
Their favorite picture!
For all the days along the way
