Sometimes the best love stories start in unexpected ways and ours is no different. We first connected through a mutual friend, but Trina had actually noticed Tristen weeks before, spotting him in the gym playing basketball and even texting her best friend Adrienne about him. At the time, they were in different grades Trina a freshman and Tristen a senior but somehow, he stood out. Not long after, Tristen had graduated. Trina and Adrienne walked to a parking lot by the football field after school, where they officially met Tristen. From that day on, it became routine meeting up, talking, laughing, and creating memories they’ll never forget. Since Trina and Adrienne lived together, Tristen quickly became their go-to ride, and their bond only grew stronger. Those everyday moments turned into memories they will never forget. What started as a simple moment turned into something so meaningful. They made it official on November 2, 2023.

March 14th also Trina’s dad’s birthday started with a family lunch full of love and laughter, but as the day went on, Trina had a feeling something special was coming. That evening, they arrived at a beautiful hotel in Cookeville, where nerves and excitement filled the air. As Tristen opened the door, Trina was already in tears, knowing what was about to happen. Inside was a stunning setup with the words “Marry Me.” After a heartfelt speech from Tristen, Trina happily said yes. The night got even better as they were surprised by loved ones, celebrating with pictures, dinner, and drinks. The perfect ending to a beautiful day and the start of forever.
