Status - In Love
In the summer of 2022, Lauren was living at home in Billings, helping her mom, and Seth was back from college in Bozeman for just two short weeks. They met online, decided to meet in person right away, and from the very first moment, they both knew something was different. A distinct voice in Lauren's head said, “Just so ya know, you’re going to marry that guy.” Their first date was one for the books. The very next day came their second. Two days later, the third. By the time Seth had to return to Bozeman, they had fit in nine dates—including his brother’s wedding, where Lauren met his whole family. That fall, Seth finished his last semester in Bozeman while Lauren remained in Billings. In January 2023, they prayed for clarity about their future. That same day, while closing out work tabs, Lauren noticed a job opening in “Bozeman, MT.” That was all the answer she needed. Within weeks, she packed her things and moved—because being with Seth felt worth everything. Life in Bozeman has been full of love, laughter, and little daily joys that only confirmed what they felt from the very beginning: this was it. Then, in May of 2025, Seth brought Lauren to her family cabin. After making incredible pizza, sharing drinks, playing music, and sketching together, he asked her to spend forever with him. No Surprise- She said yes.
