Rachel and Garrett met in January 2016 on the popular dating app Tinder. Garrett’s first messege to Rachel was “I can’t think of anything witty to say, so I will just say you are beautiful”, Rachel left him on read. A couple days later Rachel decided to reach back out to Garrett, and they exchanged numbers. Their first date was spent at a local park and both just talked about life. Their relationship did not start out romantic. In March of 2016, Rachel and Garrett took their friendship they created and decided to make it into more of a relationship. They kept their relationship to themselves for the first month and a half. They spent that time getting to know each other better before meeting families. Rachel and Garrett’s love for one another grew stronger day by day. It’s not the most exciting “this is how they met story” but it’s their story and they can’t wait to be Mr and Mrs.
