Tasha & Nick’s story begins at Castle High School in Kaneohe, Hawai’i where they met through mutual friends. They became close during our Junior year and fell in love in their Senior year. After graduating High School together in May 2011, they stayed together while Nick enrolled at the University of Hawai’i at Mānoa, and Tasha began her college experience at Windward Community College. In 2015, Tasha moved back to Idaho to be closer with family while maintaining a long-distance relationship with Nick. A few years later, Nick moved to Idaho and reunited with Tasha, proceeding to rent an apartment, get engaged, and buy a house together. They plan to be married and eventually start a family together.

Tasha & Nick decided to take a vacation break to Bandon, Oregon to visit Tasha's aunt Stephanie during Thanksgiving. The road trip there was full of amazing experiences, including a visit to Multnomah Falls, Portland, and the Oregon coast. In Bandon, a walk along the beach at Sunset turned out to be so much more. In front of a large driftwood log, Nick knelt down to pop the question to Tasha, with her grandmother Carole's wedding ring in hand. Tasha said yes, with Stephanie capturing every precious moment on film. As the sun set, they walked around the low tide rocky ridges, and watched horseback riders gallop across the sand.
