Some love stories begin quietly. Ours began on Christmas Eve.

Genna and Grayson first met at a Christmas Eve party hosted by a mutual family friend. The moment Grayson walked through the door, their eyes met and something instantly clicked. True to form, Grayson made his move in an unexpected way. Instead of introducing himself to Genna first, he sat down beside Genna and her stepdad, Larry, and struck up a conversation. Before Genna even knew what was happening, Grayson had already won over her stepdad. Only then did he introduce himself to Genna, and from that moment on, the spark was undeniable.

After the party, Grayson searched for Genna on social media and sent her his number, hoping she would reach out. She did, and soon after they planned their first date. They headed up to Mount Shasta to play in the snow and ended the night with a cozy wine night. Conversation came easily, laughter was constant, and it quickly became clear that this connection was something special.

A couple of months later, Genna made the drive from San Jose, California to St. George, Utah to celebrate Grayson’s birthday. During that visit, Grayson asked Genna to be his girlfriend, and she said yes with a very happy and confident yes.
