We met while working at Lowe’s together. For months, we enjoyed quipping back and forth and hurling fake insults at one another. Over time we bonded over our quick wits and ability to take a joke and our friendship turned into something more serious. When we finally gave in and decided to hang out everything quickly fell into place. Our relationship is firmly based in love and laughter and we wouldn’t want it any other way.

We got engaged at our annual Halloween party with our friends. Halloween is Leara’s favorite time of year. Zach conspired with her friends and got down on one knee to surprise her.
