William and Mackenzie met in 2016 in the halls of Cranford High School. What went from a High School fling, quickly blossomed into the relationship we have built today. We dated for eight years, and kept our strong bond through our long distance battle in college. After countless visits between Michigan and Florida, the two of us now live together in Grand Rapids Michigan, where our love story continues to grow and flourish. William popped the question on May 21st, 2025 on Reeds Lake in East Grand Rapids, Michigan.
