Matthew and Raeanna met in May of 2017 when they were both invited to a dance through the Baptist student ministry at her school. Matthew sat across from Raeanna at dinner and talked a little bit. She then knew him as the cool Marine dude. Later that year, they were reunited at a bonfire, and she still just knew him as the cool Marine dude. Then in February of 2018, a mutual friend of theirs gave Raeanna’s phone number to Matthew so they began talking and going on dates. He showed her his farm world and she fell in love. On July 17, Matthew asked Raeanna to marry him and she said YES!
