LeeAnn originally traveled to Greensboro to attend college, pursuing her dreams of becoming a teacher. She has done just that, now in her third year of teaching and is loving every minute. As LeeAnn followed in her Mamaw's footsteps, Ben was across the way helping support his family business - the local toy store. He stepped up during COVID to help his father and became a Buyer and the Internet Operations Manager overtime. LeeAnn applied to the store during her UNCG days, and their story began. They started talking, doing little jobs together, spending as much time together as possible. At the time, Ben wasn't sure if he could date an employee, but as time went on he knew that she was something special. It's been nearly 6 years since. Many memories have been made, trust and respect have been earned, and the two have truly developed a relationship that allows both to grow individually while encouraging each other and demonstrating a compassionate love. We're so happy for you to join us on our most exciting day and hope you feel all the joy that we do.
