Natalie and Rivers met in November 2019 through Bumble. It was Natalie’s first day on the app, and Rivers stood out right away: a good-looking guy with interesting hobbies, a clear love for his family, and a great sense of humor. They clicked immediately. He asked for her number, they had their first date at Kerbey Lane Café, and they haven’t stopped having fun together since. Over the years, Natalie and Rivers have been by each other’s side through some of life’s biggest transitions. From graduating college and starting their professional careers to being there for family weddings and welcoming new nieces and nephews, they've experienced so many meaningful milestones together. They’ve made it through COVID, food poisoning, flooding, and even the infamous Austin snowstorm. From ages 20 and 21 to now 26 and 27, they've grown more into themselves, and through that, have only grown closer to each other. These days, their life together is filled with lots of love for their cat, Violet. Rivers (once allergic to cats) is now completely obsessed, and they both adore cuddling her and taking way too many pictures. They also recently bought their first home in Kyle, TX, and are enjoying building a life together. In October 2024, Rivers proposed at one of their favorite hidden spots in Austin, the 360 Overlook above Lake Austin. It was intimate, romantic, and felt just right for their kind of love. Now, they're soaking in this new season and looking forward to celebrating the next chapter with the people who have supported them along the way. They’re so grateful for everyone who’s been part of their story so far, and they can’t wait to share this special moment with you.
