We're Getting Married!

They both were in the right place at the right time. The Air Force took Ryan from his hometown Orlando, FL to Dayton, OH. And lucky enough fate was just waiting for him in Ohio, a homegrown Daytonian, Jessica. All because two people swiped right! They matched on Bumble in August 2019. They met in person a few weeks later and had their first date at Graeter's Ice Cream. That's when Jessica found out Ryan's weird obsession with butter pecan ice cream. :) But despite that, they officially started dating in October 2019. They have experienced so many milestones in the past 5 years together. Quarantined together during Covid, adopted their first puppy in July 2020, bought their first home in June 2021, travelled abroad to Italy in May 2023, adopted their 2nd puppy in July 2023, and finally got engaged in November 2023. Ryan planned a trip to Vegas to visit friends. From there they drove to Utah to visit Zion National Park. During the hike, Ryan found the best view and that's where he popped the question!
