How We Met

From neighbors to soulmates

It all began in October 2022, when we both moved to St. George, Utah, completely unaware that fate had placed us just across the street from each other. Living in the same complex, we crossed paths often hanging out in the same circles, sharing mutual friends, and never thinking much of it. Fast forward to February 2024, something changed. What had once been casual meetups turned into daily adventures. We couldn’t get enough of each other, and before we knew it, we had fallen fast and hard. By May 2024, we made it official, and from that moment on, life became an endless adventure, whether it was fishing, karaoke nights, or trying every restaurant in town, we did it all, side by side. But life had a curveball waiting. Ryan was set to join the Coast Guard, and the thought of long distance was heartbreaking. We were ready to take on the challenge, knowing our love could withstand anything. Then, in July, everything changed. Ryan shattered his kneecap, and suddenly, "in sickness and in health" became more than just words. Haley was there through it all, driving to Wyoming, helping him get dressed, taking care of every little thing. That time together proved what we already knew: we were meant to be. With Ryan back in St. George, we decided there was only one thing left to do, make forever official. On March 1st, 2025, Ryan got down on one knee, and the easiest "yes" of all time was spoken. And here we are now, counting down the days until we say, "I do!"
