We were both busy student-athletes at neighboring colleges in Boca Raton, Florida when our story began. We must've somehow crossed paths because we followed each other on Instagram without ever actually meeting. One day, Reese got the courage to send Stephanie a DM after thinking she was cute for a while. He chose a strong pick-up line... "where in Texas are you from?". But that was all it took to spark our conversation. We moved to communicating on Snapchat where our conversations were minimal as "keeping the streak alive" was our focus. After months of back-and-forth Snapping, Stephanie took the initiative and asked "so are we ever going to hang out?". Not even a week later, we planned our first date at Fresh Kitchen where we talked for hours and everything felt very natural. We both left looking forward to seeing each other again, and we both were so excited to share our excitement with family and friends that we went on a date with someone near our hometowns in Texas. Flash forward 2.5 years later, we got engaged on a beach near our first date. We can't wait to celebrate our love with you all at our wedding on June 21, 2025!
