Our Story

Our love story starts in Shreveport, Louisiana. Working in local news took Tatum there long before Josh arrived in 2018, but life was never the same once Josh and Tatum started working the same “nightside” shift at the local ABC affiliate, KTBS. Things started mundanely enough. There were certainly sparks between us when Josh interviewed at KTBS, but the true fireworks didn’t start until the day Josh moved to Shreveport. That very night, Tatum texted Josh to invite him to a Shreveport Mudbugs game, the local independent league hockey team. As a northerner moving to a very *clears throat* unique southern city, Tatum was clearly concerned with Josh making friends and wanted to make sure he felt welcome (we now all know her true intentions). Unfortunately, Josh fell asleep around 6 p.m. because of a long day of driving and moving, so he missed the text. When Josh awoke, he quickly realized what an opportunity he missed. He texted Tatum, who said to meet her out at a local bar. Josh drove Tatum home that night to make sure she got back safely, met her late, great dog Zoey, and the spark was ignited. Over the course of the next few months, Josh courted Tatum both during and after work hours. Tatum got a job offer in Nashville, an offer that offered the opportunity to push her career forward. After much consideration, Tatum decided to take the job, agreeing with Josh that they would stay together and make this thing work. After three years of long distance and four different cities later, between the two of them, Tatum landed her dream job with the Minnesota Vikings in Minneapolis, where Josh had moved a year-and-a-half earlier for one of his dream jobs. Josh eventually proposed on a sub-zero night in downtown Minneapolis. After, we went to our favorite Italian restaurant in the city and were showered with love and affection from friends and family across the country. We can’t wait for the rest of our lives together and we are so thankful you are all going to be a part of it! With love, Josh and Tatum
