Our Story

How We Met

The real question is who swiped right first? Nick was visiting St. Cloud and Cheyanne had just gotten back from Greece when we matched on Tinder. We automatically hit it off and met in person for the first time within a week of talking to one another. From there we would get together as often as possible and our relationship continued to blossom from there.

The Proposal

We both have always loved the 4th of July but it has an even more special meaning as of 2024, one of the happiest days of our lives! We spent the day with Cheyanne's family and two of our best friends in Annandale. We went to the carnival and then to the lake to watch the firework show. During the fireworks Nick got down on one knee and asked if Cheyanne would marry him... Cheyanne asked if he was for real and then said yes of course! We then spent the night telling our loved ones and celebrating the start of our next chapter.
