Chase and Anna first met during their freshman year of high school in 2017 through mutual friends, going to bonfire parties and football games as a group. As time went on, they established a great friendship that sparked the beginning of their story. Chase and Anna's friendship continued to grow, and by their junior year of high school, Chase asked Anna to be his girlfriend, Anna replied "maybe".... Chase and Anna went on hanging out and going on dates on a weekly basis. Their friends created the tag line "they are pending". Eventually the phrase "pending" faded into "dating" and they haven't looked back since. Through many seasons of life, they have been side by side. As Anna attended college, and Chase joined the Mid-America Carpenters Union, they always supported and encouraged each other to strive for their goals. After six amazing years together, Chase proposed on their anniversary — May 13, 2026 — making it one of the most special days of their lives. Now, they cannot wait to celebrate saying “yes” to forever surrounded by all of their family and friends.
