They went to the same high school, Hunter was two grades above McKennah but they had mutual friends. After high school they didn't see much of each other until a Halloween party in 2017. After that night, Hunter asked McKennah to hang out until she gave into his charm. Their moms are friends and figured out they were dating before they even told them. They spent a lot of time getting to know each other outside of who they were in high school. From trips to Florida and Antigua, time at McKennah's lake house, deep sea fishing trips, and days on the farm they fell in love pretty quickly. In June of 2019, during a trip to the Outer Banks for Hunter's birthday, he completely surprised McKennah when he asked her to marry him on the beach after dinner one night. And the rest is history!
