Our love story began with a simple message on Snapchat. Elijah reached out to Selena, and sparks flew from that first conversation. Our first date was at a karaoke night with friends, where Selena stole Elijah's heart with a rap during "Brokenhearted" by Karmin. It was a special night, not just for them but also because, once it hit midnight, it was Kaylen's birthday, Selena's maid of honor. Isa, Elijah's groomswoman, was there too for the beginning of their relationship. Elijah was so nervous that he locked his keys in his car, and Isa had to drive him home to get the items to break into it (Selena knew nothing until a year into their relationship). After getting his keys, Selena took him to a lookout, and they talked until 6 a.m. The magic didn’t end there. We couldn't wait to see each other again and planned another date at Steak & Shake at South Point Hotel. What was supposed to be a quick meal turned into hours of deep conversation, laughter, and connection. As the night turned into morning, Elijah asked Selena to be his girlfriend, sealing the beginning of their beautiful journey together.
