Andy and I met at a singles conference hosted by a few local churches, called Singles Symposium, on March 19, 2022. Andy says he got the prettiest girl there, and I say I got the guy with the cutest dimples. Haha! Andy asked for my number and we started texting, had two dates the following weekend, and have been going strong ever since! We enjoyed dating and building our relationship during the summer and fall. We both knew fairly quickly we had found "the one" and wanted to get married. Andy successfully pulled off a magnificent surprise proposal which included a scavenger hunt the day after Thanksgiving. (You can read the three part story on our Instagram pages.) And that is the beginning of our love story! We look back and see God's hand in bringing us together, and are so grateful we found each other. It's been quite a fun and meaningful adventure, and we are excited to spend the rest of our lives together! ~Lauren
