The story begins on a line to get into Jason Aldean's bar on Broadway in Nashville, TN. Emma and her girlfriends were on a girls' trip, and Grant on a post-graduation trip with his family. Worlds collided when Emma started chatting with Grant's father, Ryan, on the way into the bar. Ryan instructed her to follow Grant inside, saying "he'll buy you and all your friends a drink." The rest was history! Several Homestead IPAs, years of long distance dating, world traveling, and plenty of country music concerts, led the couple to their northern Virginia apartment where Grant got down on one knee and asked Emma to marry him! The pair kept their engagement private, just between their families, for two months to soak it all in. They can't wait to celebrate their love and party with everyone this upcoming May!
