Our RU Love Story

May 2019

Radford VA Ben and I both attended Radford University in Radford VA *Let's GO Highlanders* As Ben made his exit in May of 2017 receiving his degree in Exercise Science with a concentration in strength and conditioning, my RU journey had just begun. Ben has always been super supportive of his fraternity & chapter. In May 2019, Ben returned back to Radford to attend the graduation ceremony of some fellow brothers. During that weekend, while out with my sorority sisters, Ben and I crossed paths at an off campus event. That day he swept me off my feet...literally. And the rest is history. We started dating September 2019. We dated throughout my few years left at Radford. I graduated 2022 with a degree in Recreational Therapy, Parks, and Tourism.

The Proposal

1.29.2022

Four Seasons Hotel Georgetown, Washington, DC I knew I wanted to marry KitKat August of 2021 when she had to return back to school to finish her senior year. We had been living together for some time now so when she left I knew I didn't want to live my life without her. I wanted to wait to propose to her in Mexico after her graduation but I knew I couldn't wait that long. I decided to not have a big crowd because I know KitKat values our alone time the most. The day of the proposal, I was so excited, I thought I'd give it away. I was so ready to just scream "WILL YOU MARRY ME " from the time she woke up. I picked the Four Seasons Hotel because she loves the spa. During her massage I snuck in, got down on one knee and asked her to marry me. When I proposed to Katanie, I was so overwhelmed with joy. Making Katanie my wife is one of the best decisions I've made. I know I've found a phenomenal woman. -Ben Two weeks before the proposal, I was told to pack a bag and get all dolled up and that we were going on a date. Mysteriously, my parents wanted to come visit that same exact weekend. The day comes and Ben is clocking me about being on time for our date. We get in the car and I start asking questions after questions, he wouldn't say anything. We arrived at the Four Seasons and I was instantly excited. MY MAN GOT ME AT THE FOUR SEASONS! Workers came to get me out the car smiling ear to ear. I thought, "man this is premium customer service". While walking inside he tells me we are here for a couples' massage. For months I had been telling him we had to go to the Four Seasons for massages. For the massage, they had us in separate rooms, which was unusual for a couples' massage, mid-massage someone knocks on the door and I felt a tug on my left hand and there he was on bended knee. -Katanie
