Sam and Grace met at a mutual friends house in the summer of 2017 before Grace started college at Northwest University. Their friend was hosting a worship gathering and Sam was leading worship. That night, Sam also shared with the group one of his original songs "Story Ends With You", a love song he wrote for his future wife. Grace had the thought "Wow, how amazing would it be if I was the girl he sang that to." Over the next few months, Sam and Grace hung out in group settings. Grace was definitely falling hard, but Sam took a little while to catch up, so they built a good friendship for a few months before finally starting to date November 2017. Fast forward to summer of 2021, when Sam proposed to Grace, he sang "Story Ends With You" to her to commemorate the special first day they met. They have been through a number of trials together and have had even more times of celebration. There have been many tears, hardships, and stretching times, but also such beautiful, and joyful moments that have got them to where they are today. Here's to the soon to be Mr. and Mrs. Wilkinson!
