Caroline and Ethan’s story began in August of their freshman year of high school, when mutual friends unknowingly introduced them to the person they would spend forever with. What started as simple conversations quickly turned into late-night phone calls and constant texting, and by December 1, 2018, Ethan asked Caroline to be his girlfriend, marking the official beginning of a love story that would shape the years to come. From that day forward, they were inseparable, growing up side by side and supporting each other through every milestone. Their journey continued as they both attended the University of Oklahoma, experiencing college life together while building a foundation rooted in friendship, love, and shared dreams. Ethan graduated in May 2025 and began his career that summer, and just a few months later, on September 21, 2025, he surprised Caroline with a proposal at the OKC Botanical Gardens, making it a moment she will cherish forever. Shortly after Caroline graduated in December, the two returned home to Fort Worth to begin the next chapter of their lives. What began as a high school romance has grown into a lifelong partnership, and they cannot wait to celebrate the start of their forever together.
