Their Story

James and Sam met in October 2021 on Hinge—modern love, right? But just as they were planning their first date, Sam came down with Covid. That delayed things a bit… but fate has a funny way of making you wait for something special. Over the next month, they spent time really getting to know each other. Conversations turned into connection, and connection turned into something deeper. It only took a few weeks before Sam told her sister, “I’m going to marry him." From there, the adventures never stopped. They bought their first toy hauler to spend more time exploring, spent countless weekends at the river and Glamis, and even set out on a month-long road trip together. Along the way, they've shared countless unforgettable moments with the people who mean the most to them. Whether it was wild boat days, the thrill of riding together, or simply spending time together, each experience brought them closer and made their love stronger. When James decided to propose, there was only one place that felt right—Glamis, surrounded by the beauty and adventure they both love so much. In that moment, under the wide-open sky, he asked Sam to spend forever with him. From a simple message on Hinge to building a life full of joy, love, and a little bit of dirt—they're so grateful for this journey. God truly does work in amazing ways, and they can’t wait to see where the next chapter takes them.
