Our Love Story

Hunter and Becca met on Becca’s birthday in 2021 during a night out in Lubbock, Texas. Becca was in college at Texas Tech, and Hunter was serving in the Air Force stationed at Cannon AFB. Both were out with a few friends, and what started as a casual evening quickly turned into something neither of them expected. The connection was immediate. They talked, played a few rounds of cornhole (which Hunter and his friends tried to lose on purpose — unsuccessfully), and by the end of the night, it already felt like something special was unfolding. Their friends noticed it too, and later joked they couldn’t wait for the wedding — because it was that clear these two were meant for each other. Their first official date came soon after. They picked a restaurant, sat down, and were so caught up in conversation that they forgot to look at the menu. Time slipped by, and their waiter eventually clocked out — forgetting they were still there. It was the kind of moment that quietly confirmed what they both already sensed: this was the real thing. From the beginning, Hunter and Becca balanced each other in the best ways. His steady calm complements her energy, and her warmth draws out his quiet strength. Together, they’ve built something grounded and easy, full of humor, trust, and genuine partnership. On August 3, 2024 — a date Becca considers lucky (8×3=24) — Hunter proposed in the Dallas Arboretum. He had planned the entire thing with care, hoping to surprise her, but Becca had already pieced it together (she knows him that well). Even under the blazing Texas sun, it was a beautiful, thoughtful moment that reflected everything about their relationship: intentional, joyful, and full of heart. Now, they’re looking forward to celebrating their story — and their future — with the people who have been part of it from the start.
