Like many modern love stories, ours began on Bumble — where Mandie made the first move. Her opening line? A question that, in true New Orleans fashion, got straight to the heart of things: “Who would you make the Saints’ starting QB?” A bold opener, but Mandie believes that kind of answer tells you everything you need to know about a person. Luckily, Dylan gave a solid response — and even luckier, he turned out to be everything she didn’t know she was looking for. We officially started dating in December of 2021 and the years since have flown by in the best way. From Saints and LSU games, weddings, trips to Disney and Washington D.C. we’ve filled our days with laughter, love, and memories we’ll treasure forever. In September 2024, Dylan proposed at the lakefront in New Orleans — a beautiful moment that Mandie might have seen coming (Dylan mentioned “family pictures” two weeks in advance, and let’s just say, Dylan and family group texts don’t usually mix). After saying yes, we celebrated with our family and friends to kick off a year ( plus a little) full of preparation and excitement. We’re thrilled to continue this journey together with all of you by our side and can’t wait for our wedding — the start of our forever and, if we’re being honest, the party of the century.
