Zach and McKenna met in 2023 at a dance hall in San Antonio where she was living at the time that Zach was traveling there for work. Their connection was instant and they decided to bravely pursue a long distance relationship. Over the following year, they met in Houston, Austin, Dallas, and Atlanta to see each other. Then, in May of 2024, Zach was offered a stationary job in Dallas and the two moved into their first apartment together with their pup, Keera. Shortly after, Zach proposed in Irving, TX on the love lock bridge after a gondola ride and chocolate cake (McKenna’s favorite). They later adopted their second pup, Dos Equis and the four of them are loving Dallas living. The two are so excited for the engagement journey and for their forever to start.
