We’re getting married!

Drake and Heidi met as a joke when his mom suggested they be friends in 2016. She just moved to Hot Springs to begin her teaching career, and didn’t know very many people. How many couples start with the mom and fiance being friends first?! After going hiking a few times, they became best friends, and only grew from there. Fast forward to April 28, 2019, when the two decided to become more than friends and started dating. Almost a year later, March 24, 2020, they took another big step. With candles along a dock leading to roses and a big “will you marry me?, the couple began their next big adventure to plan a wedding!
