Lauren got out of basketball practice on day in the 8th grade to see a Facebook message from Michael. The romantic text stated, "hey". The rest is history .

Michael and Lauren's Brother In Law, Zach, took off on a jet-ski ride in the Lake of the Ozarks. 3 hours later, they finally return. Lauren didn't think anything of it because her and the rest of her family were out for lunch. Later she found out they were exploring different locations they saw fit for a proposal. Later that night, the whole group went out for a sunset boat ride. While getting close to the floral arrangements at Floral Cove, Michael stunned Lauren and got down on one knee with her entire family to be able to witness.
