7 years ago, in the beautiful state of Hawai’i, Palani and Jannilyn met. Both 18 years old at the time, Jannilyn was just starting out her freshman year in college on Oahu and Palani was from the Big Island, eventually moving to Oahu for school as well. Palani was the first one interested and was persistent, Jannilyn soon falling for his fluffy hair and funny personality. Their first few years together were hard trying to make a long distance relationship work. Together they have overcome many obstacles that life has thrown their way and have learned from each other. On their 6 year anniversary in Reno, NV, Palani popped the question and of course Jannilyn said “Yes”! Now, here they are looking forward to the next chapter in life and celebrating with loved ones!
