Brandon and Gracia have been together since December 6th, 2017. In 2019, they moved in together in Big Rapids, Michigan. On June 28th, 2020 their family expanded by 4 paws. Waldo (Bubs) is their Blue Heeler Mix and is spoiled beyond comprehension by the couple. After Brandon graduated from Ferris State University in the Spring of 2021, the two moved to Milwaukee, Wisconsin where Brandon started working for Amazon and Gracia managed a Once Upon a Child. The following year, Brandon was transferred to Saginaw and the pair moved back to Michigan, purchasing a home in Vassar. Together, Brandon and Gracia enjoy traveling, camping, hiking and spending time on the water. They both come from large, tight-knit families so there’s always a family function they’re looking forward to. Their bucket list items include: visiting Iceland, Zion National Park and the Oregon Coast.

Brandon and Gracia met during the 2017 Fall semester in their Intro to Anthropology class at Mid Michigan College. After asking to use his study guide for a test, Gracia decided to take the chance and asked Brandon on their first date to a screen reading at Central Michigan University. That date led to a second and a third date. While in Frankenmuth visiting Bronner’s the two decided to make it official and have been together ever since.

Brandon took his sweet time asking Gracia to marry him. After 6 years, countless hints and several discussions, he finally did! While on vacation with her family in August 2023, Brandon asked Pat and Patty for their permission to marry Gracia, their response? “You mean OUR Grace?” 4 months later, after recreating their third date, Brandon took Gracia down to the Cass River in Frankenmuth’s Heritage Park and proposed. Her answer was “You asked my dad, right?” Followed by an excited “YES!”
