In 2016, Brayden moved from Zionsville to Marion, as a sophomore in high school. Trinity, a freshman at the time, caught his attention almost immediately. After hearing his football teammates jokingly claim he had no chance, Brayden took it as a challenge and started reaching out to her on social media. A few months later, they officially started dating. Through the years, life briefly took them in different directions, but no matter the distance or challenges, they always found their way back to each other—proving time and again that they were meant to be. After graduating high school, both Brayden and Trinity attended Ball State University, where their relationship continued to grow. In August of 2023, just months before Trinity’s college graduation, they took a big step and moved into their first home together on the northwest side of Indianapolis. Four months later, Brayden got down on one knee and asked Trinity to spend forever with him. “High school sweethearts may start as young love, but true love will always find its way.”
