Hannah and James first met in the fall of 2018 through mutual friends. Their paths continued to cross, especially through their involvement in their respective Greek life organizations, and a friendship quickly began to grow. What started as casual hangouts soon became something more, especially with a little encouragement from Hannah’s end. Over time, James realized what Hannah had known for quite a while — that they were meant to be more than friends. By the fall of 2019, they officially began dating, and their connection only deepened from there. James’s steady patience and calm nature have always been exactly what Hannah needs, while Hannah’s warmth and outgoing spirit have encouraged James to step outside his comfort zone and embrace life more fully. Together, they’ve built a relationship rooted in understanding, laughter, and unwavering support. During a boating weekend with James’s family in Rock Hall, MD, James accidentally said I love you first — a moment that perfectly captured their easy connection and how meant-to-be they truly are. After college, Hannah and James moved in together, beginning a new chapter side by side. At the end of summer in 2024, in Easton, Pennsylvania, James asked Hannah to marry him, marking the start of their forever. Not long after, they welcomed their beloved pup, Honey, into their lives — completing their little family. Now, they look forward to a lifetime of love, laughter, and continuing to bring out the best in one another.
