Our Story
How We Met
In 2017, Kira and Landon met online while she was living and working in Charlotte for the summer. They had texted for a couple months and (finally) had their first date on July 5th, 2017- they have been together ever since!
Their relationship was long distance for 2 years while Kira went to school in Massachusetts. Landon worked various jobs in South Carolina as they both navigated young adulthood while living 800 miles apart. They made sure to plan trips a couple times a year until Kira graduated college and officially moved to the Carolina's in 2019.
They now live in Clover, South Carolina!
The Proposal
Landon surprised Kira with the proposal on April 27th, 2023 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. They had a trip to Atlanta planned that weekend to see Kira's favorite artist in concert and he wanted to tie-in the proposal somehow.
Kira had flown up to Massachusetts in March to help family move to NC so Landon bought the ring- Kira had no idea.
The week of their planned ATL trip, Landon coordinated with her family in NC to get her to the track and propose. Kira's dad (an employee at the track) brought them to the roof above the concourse which overlooks the track. Kira was looking out at the track and turned around to Landon on one knee and her family smiling ear to ear!
