Madeline and Clayton met the summer of 2015. After one dinner with one of the groomsmen, they moved in together for the summer and became best friends (and Clayton was already madly in love). Over the next few years, they lived in different places and pursued different paths, but were always drawn back to each other. In the summer of 2018, they took the next step and began dating. Nine months later, Clayton got down on one knee and proposed at their favorite place in the city! ....and Madeline said yes!
