“Alex and I met at Texas State University in the most random way possible. My best friend and his best friend decided to move in together…as complete strangers. He was there helping them, I was there helping my best friend, and when we were introduced, I immediately thought, okay, he’s cute. Two years passed as mutual friends, hanging out in the same group, still not making the connection—until one night at a party. I made the first move, and suddenly, January 2020 became our official “we’re falling for each other” month. By March 2020, we went fully official, right as COVID hit. Quarantining together basically forced us to either figure out how to love each other or lose our minds. Spoiler: we nailed it. We learned to love each other, cope with each other, and keep each other entertained when the entire world was shut down. Six years later, we’ve grown together through job changes, long distance, life decisions, and three years living in a new city. We’re now engaged, and I can’t imagine anyone more perfect to laugh with, lean on, and love forever. Alex is my safe place, my home, and my heart. We cannot wait to get married in March 2027 and keep choosing each other every single day.”

“Camille and I met at Texas A&M Fish Camp in 2021, and from the very start it felt like one of those moments that was meant to happen. We were placed in the same small group because our birthdays are back-to-back, mine on May 2nd and hers on May 3rd, which immediately gave us something to laugh about and bond over. What began as easy conversations during camp quickly turned into a genuine friendship, and before long, we realized how naturally we connected and how comfortable we felt around each other. As we spent more time together, it became clear that our values, faith, and vision for the future aligned in a way neither of us had experienced before. Looking back, Fish Camp wasn’t just where we met, it was where God quietly began writing our love story, one that continues to grow deeper and more meaningful every day.”

“Anthony and I have been together since sophomore year of high school, and this year marks 11 years of loving each other. We’ve truly grown up side by side—witnessing each other evolve into better versions of ourselves, overcome challenges, and step into new chapters of life, both together and individually. From teenagers to the people we are today, our love has been a constant through every season. We got engaged in February 2025, right at the cusp of our 10 year mark, in one of our favorite places in the entire world—Hawaii. Anthony created the most beautiful moment on Ka’a’awa Beach, lining the shoreline with a trail of rose petals that led to a heart made entirely of roses. The moment I saw it, my heart sank, because I knew instantly—this was the moment. The moment our forever truly began. We were just two 16-year-olds who met by chance, never imagining that one day we’d choose each other for a lifetime. What started as a simple high school relationship turned into a love like no other. Choosing each other every single day has been the greatest gift, and I can’t wait to continue our journey for the rest of our lives.”

“We met through our families, who had actually known each other for 10-12 years! We did not meet until 2020 & knew we would be inseparable. He asked me to be his girlfriend by spelling it out with French fries on a table. 5 years later he proposed to me in Disney World!”

“Our story began in October 2016, standing in line at our high school’s rival football game. Alexander was a sophomore, I was a junior, and our first interaction was brief but memorable. As Alexander likes to tell it, I “demanded” that he hold face paint while I painted our friends’ faces. Later that night, he found me on Twitter and sent me a message, and from that moment on, we were inseparable. FaceTime calls turned into constant conversations, and on February 22, 2017, he asked me to be his girlfriend. What followed was four years of long distance while Alexander chased his dreams playing college baseball. Throughout it all, we chose each other again and again. I drove countless hours and miles to support him, learning early on that love is built through sacrifice, patience, and unwavering faith. Now, after growing up together from the ages of 15 and 16, we are building the life we once prayed for. We purchased our first home in December, and this February, on our ninth anniversary, we will finally say “I do.” By the grace of God, these kids are finally getting married.”
