How we met

We both grew up in the same small town, went to the same small school and knew eachother most of our lives. Unlike most high school sweethearts, we weren’t crazy about eachother back then, interactions mostly consisted of rolling our eyes at eachother. After Graduation we both went to different colleges and didn’t see eachother again for the next few years.

The first date

A few years after graduation Austin and Alena crossed paths again. This time things were different. Austin asked Alena out on their first date, before he quickly ghosted and cancelled the date. After a couple weeks, we agreed to go out again. This time we actually made it to the date, and went back to our roots, to a hometown football game. That football game was the start of our forever.

He popped the question

December 21st 2019

After two years, 1 dog, and 2 cats Austin decided it was time. So on December 21st, he arranged for Alena to have a girls day with her two best friends. They went and got their nails done before heading downtown to check out the christmas lights, where Austin was preparing for their huge moment. He hired a photographer, they were sorrounded by friends. But in that moment, it was just him and her and it was perfect.
