It all started with a swipe. Yep, you guessed it—Ben and Morgan’s love story began on a dating app, where Ben’s witty one-liners and Morgan’s love for a positive attitude sparked an instant connection. After some clever banter and many messages about sporting events, coffee, and food (His move – “Do you like Coffee or Food? Well, would you like to get some with me?”), they finally decided to meet up in person. And let’s just say, they’re both glad they swiped right.

For their first date, Ben took Morgan to 5th and Taylor in Nashville—a place as trendy as it is delicious. After some great food and even better conversation, they decided to continue the fun by finding a karaoke bar. Spoiler: Karaoke on a Monday night in Nashville is nearly impossible, but that didn’t stop them! They ended up dancing the night away on the rooftop of Whiskey Row, feeling like they had just stumbled into the best night of their lives. A failed karaoke mission? Maybe. But dancing with no cares on Broadway? Absolutely perfect.

Ben quickly discovered something about Morgan that really resonated with him: her career in oncology as a nurse practitioner. Cancer had deeply impacted his own life through family and loved ones, so to meet someone who was not only skilled but so kind and selfless in helping others was nothing short of inspiring. Morgan’s heart of gold and the care she gives her patients, family, and friends was one of the first things that made Ben fall completely in love with her. Morgan, on the other hand, fell for Ben’s goofy nature. Whether it was his constant jokes, playful energy, or the fact that he could find a silver lining in almost any situation, Ben's positivity was impossible to resist. And honestly, how could anyone say no to a guy who’s both devilishly handsome and hilarious?

After months of subtle hints, Ben finally popped the question in the most meaningful way possible—at home, with their two adorable dogs, Lady and Nugget, by their side. It wasn’t a big surprise, but it was heartfelt, intimate, and exactly what they both needed. They spent the evening reliving the day they first met, just the two of them and their dogs. Of course, the celebration was far from over—they later returned to 5th and Taylor, where their love story began, for a night to remember.

Why are we getting married? Well, because Ben can’t live without Morgan’s kindness and her ability to put up with his random singing at any given moment. And Morgan can’t imagine life without Ben’s unwavering support, constant laughter, and his ability to turn every moment into a musical number—whether it’s in the car, the kitchen, or literally anywhere. We’ve found a perfect balance—one that involves equal parts goofiness and heart. We’re ready to spend our lives supporting each other and continuing our weirdly perfect tradition of dancing on rooftops (maybe with some karaoke next time). And honestly, we couldn’t imagine doing it with anyone else. P.S. We may not win any vocal competitions, but we’ll definitely win the award for Most Fun—and that’s all that matters.
