Ryan and Liz met as high-schoolers through her best-friend Brenda (shoutout!). Although attending different high schools, the two became very close friends throughout the years, offering each other an ear to vent to, and even dating advice through past relationships. Their friendship meant a lot to each other, and they spent a lot of time hanging out and bonding over similar music tastes. After about 2 years of platonic friendship, both Ryan and Liz mutually decided to give it a shot and start dating (best decision ever)! This marked the start of a whirlwind 10 year relationship. The couple attended college together at Texas State University where they navigated adult life living away from home and immersed themselves in the culture of San Marcos, TX. Attending concerts and jumping in the river were among their favorite things to do as a couple. After college, Liz and Ryan remained inseparable and there was never a doubt that they wouldn't spend the rest of their lives together. After 10 years, Ryan finally asked Liz to marry him in front of their friends and family during his birthday party in April of 2023 and Liz immediately said yes! The rest is history as the couple plans for their wedding in November of 2024. They hope to celebrate their wedding with their closest friends and family that have supported their relationship throughout the years.
