On the night of May 16th, 2020 Jonathan and Lacey were on their way to a mutual friend's house. Little did they know that this was the night their paths would first cross. Jonathan says that it was love at first sight when he saw Lacey from across the room. The two knew from the moment they met that there was this strong chemistry between them. Just over a month later on June 18th Jonathan asked Lacey on their first official date after a few weeks of getting to know each other. On the night of June 18th, 2020 Jonathan asked Lacey to make it official at Epic Chophouse. From that date forward they were besties, soulmates, and wanted to spend 24/7 together. August 7th, 2020 they shared their first “I love you” on the way to Wilmington for the weekend. Jonathan was living in Greensboro and Lacey was living in Mooresville starting nursing school. Jonathan knew how much Lacey’s dream of being a nurse meant so the two of them made it work. Alternating weekends, traveling back and forth from Mooresville to Greensboro vice versa some weekends turned into weeks without seeing each other. At the beginning of 2022, Jonathan and Lacey decided to stop spending so much money on gas and buy a home together. In May of 2022, Lacey graduated with her RN. In December of 2022, Jonathan and Lacey officially became homeowners and moved into their beautiful home in High Point, NC. On the night of the 4th of July, 2024 there were sparks. Jonathan got down on one knee and asked Lacey to spend the rest of their lives together in front of their family and friends. The two left early the next day on a surprise trip Jonathan planned for Lacey in Punta Cana! Now that you all are up to speed. Each of you have impacted us in many ways! You have become and continue to be a part of our story - we're so excited to share this incredible day with you as you help us script the beginning of a new chapter. xoxo, The Future Smiths
