We met when we were just 15 and 16 at a birthday party. From the moment I (Delani) saw Ian, I was completely drawn to him. Funny enough, I didn’t even realize we had already been in the same class for a few months — somehow, I hadn’t noticed the quiet guy who was fully focused on baseball and had no interest in having a girlfriend. After a few months of chasing him around (with some not-so-subtle hints), Ian eventually admitted he had feelings for me too. We officially started dating in May 2019, not knowing this was the beginning of forever. After Ian graduated high school, he went on to play baseball at FGCU. The next year, I graduated and also ended up at FGCU. College came with its share of challenges, long-distance moments, and hard but refining times — but through it all, we’ve seen God be so incredibly faithful. He’s been our constant in every season. Now, some of our biggest dreams are becoming a reality. Ian was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates, and we’re preparing for one of the most exciting chapters yet — becoming husband and wife. We’re so thankful for the journey that’s led us here and even more thankful for all of you who have loved and supported us along the way. We owe everything we have to the One who continues to bless us way more than we deserve. Thank you, Lord! We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
