We met in middle school and had a friendship for years before deciding to take the next step in our relationship. Our relationship began after we decided to go to sophomore year homecoming together. 6 years later, we moved into our first house, have a sweet dog, Koda, and are excited for the future together.

After receiving the blessing to tie the knot together, Christian had purchased the ring 3 months before an exciting trip to Cancun, Mexico. While in Cancun with Riley’s sister, Maddie, and Maddie’s boyfriend, Kyle, the three of them worked together to pull off the perfect surprise for Riley! The night started with a sunset beach walk followed by dinner reservations. Maddie was taking photos of Christian and Riley on the beach, when he decided to pop the question. She was so surprised and of course she said yes! It is a moment they will never forget!
