We met through my sister Taylor and her husband Blake. I messaged him first on Instagram. We went on our first date to Frankie’s Fun Park to play putt putt and later to Bald Rock to show him my favorite place. We became a couple November 7, 2018. Blake and Patrick always joked as kids that they would be brothers and now they get to be.

Patrick proposed on our family vacation to Destin, Florida. We played golf that morning and when we got back Patrick asked if we could go look for seashells on the beach. Looking for seashells was Christina’s favorite thing to do at the beach. They got there and walked down the beach with their son Jaxton looking for seashells. Patrick began by asking Christina if she remembered how important it was to her that he asked her father for his permission to marry her. She said yes and tells her that he made sure to ask before our trip. He then got down on one knee and asked her to be his wife. She of course said yes and when she looked up Patricks family was there and cheering! His cousin Mallory was there to capture the whole thing!
