Hayden and Virginia met in October 2018 during their senior year of high school. They attended separate schools in the same district, but both raised animals in FFA. Virginia made the first move, and while it took Hayden a little time to catch on, he quickly realized she was exactly who he’d been waiting for. They stayed together through the rest of high school and both went on to attend Sam Houston State University, where Hayden graduated in May 2022. During college, they added two dogs and a cat to their little family, making life that much sweeter (and a little more chaotic!). After moving back home to Katy, Hayden and Virginia continued building their life together. Virginia is finishing her degree at Lamar University and will graduate in May 2026, while Hayden works as a project controller. On September 15, 2024, Hayden proposed to Virginia. They are so excited to celebrate their wedding day and the future ahead of them with their friends and family.
