We're Getting Married!! We met in Wilmington, NC in January of 2021 and from then we were inseparable. Hayden proudly serves as a United States Marine and is stationed on Marine Corps Air Station New River in Jacksonville, NC. Come March, 2023 Hayden will have proudly served five years as an active duty United States Marine and will no longer be active duty. Hayden is from Iowa, Louisiana and enjoys spicy food, family, and friends! Makayla is from Reidsville, NC and has lived in Wilmington, NC for several years. She has fallen in love with healthcare and plans to finish her BSN-RN and become a registered nurse. Makayla enjoys time with family, friends, and watching Hayden cook. Hayden is definitely the more skilled of the two in the kitchen, good thing he enjoys it! We are both so excited for this new chapter in our lives and so thankful for both of our family's love and support. God definitely knew we needed each other, and we are so grateful that he brought us together.
