Kylie and Brandon first met in high school but didn’t start hanging out seriously until a going-away party for one of Kylie’s best friends in college. At the time, Kylie had been focusing on her mental health, and Brandon was patient, supportive, and persistent. After about six months of friendship, Kylie decided to give dating one last try—and it turned out to be the best decision ever. Their engagement was a sweet surprise: Brandon proposed during Christmas photos in a greenhouse, and Kylie had a feeling something was up since Brandon isn’t usually a fan of pictures! From friendship to love and laughter, their journey together has been full of thoughtful moments, patience, and joy.
