Scott and Sara met through a mutual friend in June of 2022. Their first hangout was at a local bar, where Scott hit the jackpot on a slot machine, although he insists Sara was the real prize. From that night on, the two were inseparable. In July, Scott officially asked her to be his girlfriend. It was the first easiest “yes” Sara has ever given. They spent the next year doing long distance while Sara finished school at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. After graduation, they moved in together and started building a life side by side. Their days became filled with all the little things they’d been missing—turning mundane chores into shared adventures and enjoying the simple pleasure of each other’s company. From grocery shopping to movie marathons, everything felt a bit more special now that they were together. In September 2024, Scott proposed on a beach in Mexico during a trip just the two of them took—the second easiest “yes” for Sara. The extravagance of the moment earned Scott a generous share of wedding planning responsibilities. The two have worked seamlessly to turn their wedding dreams into a reality and are so excited to celebrate with their closest friends and family.
