We met playing intramural volleyball in early 2016. A mutual friend invited both of us to join the team. Marleah may have Facebook stalked Evan prior to meeting up with the team at Bab's before their first game, so she already had a little crush on him. Little did they know, 5 years later they would be getting married!
After being friends for about a year, Evan invited Marleah to join him and some friends for dinner at Knights on New Years Eve 2017. They spent the night chatting and flirting with one another. This night changed the trajectory of the relationship and two days after New Years Evan called Marleah to ask her on their very first date. The rest is history!
May 29th is Evan's birthday, so Marleah was definitely not expecting a proposal. They spent the day doing Evan's favorite activities including golfing at the range and getting Mexican from the restaurant they had their first date at (Maiz). After dinner Evan asked Marleah to record him opening a gift his mom had sent him. Inside was a small wood carved box Evan had made that was engraved on the inside with the question "Will you marry me Marleah?" Marleah stopped recording and of course said YES!
