Jared and Kayla met at Applebees back in November of 2014, when Kayla started as a host and when Jared was a server. Jared couldn’t take his eyes off of Kayla when she was doing her new hire orientation with their manager. After a little while Jared and Kayla found themselves going out of their way at work to flirt and tease each other when they could because they both clearly liked each other. Kayla then asked Jared “how they were supposed to hang out with each other if they didn’t have each others numbers.” Jared took Kayla out to Olive Garden for their first date, and he also made New Years Eve plans with Kayla instead of his other friends because he liked her that much, so 1.1.15 is their anniversary. Flash forward to 9.11.18 after three and a half years together Jared asked Kayla to marry him at Vermillion State Park in Hastings, MN. Now, after almost 5 years they are finally getting married and could not be more excited.
