We first met each other on a Mission Trip to Standing Rock Indian Reservation in South Dakota. We really didn't talk a whole lot during the first part of the trip but as time went on we started to connect and we really hit it off well. After we got back, we went on a few dates before we became "official" and the rest is history :)
Our close friends Michael and Laynie asked us to come with them to a Dan & Shay concert on March 30th. At this point, Aaron knew that he wanted to marry Rachel, so he and Michael devised a plan to propose during their favorite song, "Speechless". Aaron got the ring and Rachel had no idea it was coming. As the song got to the specific part Aaron wanted to propose at, he turned and looked at Rachel and said "Hey guess what? I love you!" and got down on one knee and proposed! Rachel's reaction was priceless!
