Before Emma, Adam spent his days searching for a partner to duet “Wild Montana Skies” and bemoaning the lack of Taylor Swift in his life. Before Adam, Emma lived a life void of daily updates on the Jacksonville Jaguars and yearned for someone special to introduce her to Dominion. Fortunately, both of their prayers were answered while Adam was in diligent pursuit of a blueberry muffin. Through a fateful turn of events, Adam stumbled into a room of audiology students (probably talking about ears and stuff), that included his lovely bride-to-be. Over the next year and a half, he sought to woo her with the classic combination of gooey butter cake, Dave Ramsey guides to financial responsibility, and an introduction to the Lord of the Rings trilogy (extended versions, of course). Like a handsome stream gently weathering a strikingly cute Missourian rock, Adam slowly won the heart of Emma Travis. On October 15, 2023, Adam learned Emma hates surprises. On October 19, 2023, Adam took a gamble and disregarded this, though he offered a pretty ring as consolation. Fortunately, she still said yes. She is now committed to Christmas music in November and flip-flops year-round. No takesies backsies.
