Grant and Talin met when the dating app stars aligned to bring these two to Espresso Royale in Ann Arbor for their first date in March of 2015. Their relationship subsequently grew, and would go on to bloom through long distance, an MD (Talin) and a PhD (Grant), some doting fur children, a poorly executed Game of Thrones finale, and many heart pounding F1 Grand Prix races. In the (almost) eight years since that first meeting, both Ann Arbor and Boyne City (the location of Talin’s family cottage) have become special places for them as a couple and their combined families. With this in mind, on April 29th, 2022, Grant proposed on the beaches of Lake Charlevoix, in the attendance of said ethusiasically supportive fur children with their families ready to surprise them back at the cottage. Their time in Boyne City specifically always held an element of Michigan magic that made it the perfect place for you, their loved ones, to join in celebration of their next chapter together.
