Their story began in 2018 at the Whitmore Lake Golf Links, where they met as coworkers long before they realized how much their lives were about to change. Estella noticed right away how outgoing, kind, and genuinely loved Gunner was. Always helping others and always lifting someone’s day a little higher. Gunner’s first impression of Estella was just as strong; he saw a kind heart, a loving soul, and someone so sincere and wholesome that being around her felt instantly natural. From the very beginning, they brought out the best in each other. They’ve never laughed more than they do together, and they constantly remind one another not to take life too seriously. Together, they have always been unapologetically themselves, no pretending, no performing, just comfort and ease. Through good days, hard days, ordinary days, and unforgettable ones, they remain each other’s favorite person to talk to, lean on, and come home to. Over the years, they have built a partnership that feels both steady and magical, and they look forward to continuing to grow side by side, always.

Gunner planned a peaceful nature walk for the two of them, imagining a moment of calm to create the perfect surprise. What he didn’t anticipate was just how difficult Estella would be to surprise. She had no idea what was coming, but her many questions along the way kept Gunner on his toes the entire time. As they walked, they fed birds that landed delicately on their hands and talked about life and how happy they were together. It was one of those simple, beautiful moments that felt completely natural for them. When they reached the end of the trail, they found themselves standing beside a beautiful tree. There, Gunner got down on one knee and asked Estella to spend the rest of her life with him. As Estella said yes, she turned around to see their friends and family emerging to celebrate the moment with them. It was heartfelt, joyful, and truly perfect, a memory they’ll cherish forever.
