Olivia and Stephen met in college through a mutual friend! After a few breakfast and dinner dates, Stephen stopped the car in the middle of a street on campus at Bridgewater State University on New Year's Day and asked Olivia to be his girlfriend, because he just "didn't want to wait any longer"! The rest is history! From the first day they met, Olivia and Stephen spent nearly every day together, sharing lots of adventures. The first 5 years of their relationship was less than traditional, with the two often being separated due to Stephen's involvement in the Army National Guard. In 2021 and 2022, Stephen was deployed overseas with the US Army for 310 days, the hardest and longest time Stephen and Liv have ever spent apart. This time apart truly made them realize that they wanted to be partners for life - because when life gave them the most sour of lemons, they chose to make the sweetest lemonade. Cheers to forever!
