Konner and Gabi met in their church's youth group. Konner first noticed Gabi as the competitive one who wanted to play in all of the games his mom had planned for the service. One of Gabi's first memories with Konner was playing a board game with a group of friends, she noticed his humor and loved laughing at all of his jokes. Then they became a part of the same friend group and their story began...
Back in 2014, Konner and Gabi traveled to Greenville, SC, with some family and friends. In Greenville, the two spent time having a picnic, climbing on rocks, and making memories. Gabi's mom, Bea, just so happened to capture the famous photo of Konner and Gabi on a rock as he was telling her he liked her for the first time... Well... it went a little more like this, "Gabi I like that you are fun and tough." A short while later Konner asked Gabi to be his girlfriend while playing basketball in a friends backyard and the rest is history...
On August 2, 2020, Konner picked Gabi up for a picnic in Greenville, SC; back to the place where it kind of all began. Gabi was skeptical, so she wore the green dress she told Konner she wanted to get engaged in. The two arrived in Greenville and enjoyed a picnic next to the water. After a homeless man sat to join them, Konner took this as his cue to move on with their date... he barely ate anything anyways. Konner led Gabi to find the rock that they once shared many years before. After the two climbed to the top of the rocks, Konner got down on one knee. Who knew a rock would have been the place the changed everything... six years before to now.
