Edson first met Sarah when a mutual friend brought her to a late Friendsgiving celebration in early December 2021. Unfazed by the large personalities and wild stories, Sarah was invited to more gatherings within this friend group including their New Year's share house and the infamous carnival cruise trip. Edson expressed his feelings for Sarah on this quick weekend cruise to the Bahamas. However, Sarah needed a few more dates on land before she was convinced. After a disgustingly hot visit to Cypress Gardens, a quick friend trip to Charlotte, a Jurassic Park movie night, and bar trivia at blues, Edson asked Sarah to be his girlfriend and she said yes. After two years of movie nights, bar trivia, and traveling, Edson proposed to Sarah in the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in Charleston where they will be getting married this spring.
