The countdown to our forever is on!

An Illinois boy struck out on his own and moved to make his mark in San Antonio. A California girl set to start her life and career in Austin. A little help from Hinge, and they made a date to meet among friends and see if there were any sparks. A strawberry margarita broke the ice, and the rest was magic. That date turned into an epic weekend, and it didn't take long to know it was meant to be. Together, Brandon and Shelby have built a friendship and a life, and now they will start their forever.

He did it right! Despite the disruption to his first plan, Brandon pivoted and was able to surprise the girl, who is impossible to surprise. After asking her father's permission over the Christmas holiday, Brandon picked the ring and the location and even hired a photographer to capture every moment. With an elaborate ruse that included both sets of parents, her Uncle Dan, and a fake NFL event, Brandon lured Shelby to Austin's Sekrit Garden, where he got on bended knee and received a resounding YES!
