Grant and Brittany met freshman year of high school in a social studies class. After being friends and talking for a couple months, Grant asked Brittany out at Legion Park in De Pere on July 8, 2015. They dated throughout high school, and when it came time for college, they quickly learned how to date long distance. Grant went to Michigan Tech in Houghton, MI to pursue engineering while Brittany stayed at home to attend NWTC and UW-Green Bay for nursing. They made trips back and forth on weekends and breaks to see the other. On July 1, 2022 Grant invited Brittany to dinner and picked her up from work. However, instead of bringing her to the restaurant, he surprised her by changing the destination to Legion Park. In front of their family, Grant proposed to Brittany and she said YES!
