For Evan, it was love at first burrito. Their first official date in December 2022 took place at his favorite hidden gem of a Mexican restaurant—though Sarah was relieved when the next date was at The Angus Barn, a beloved Raleigh, NC staple. After years of friendship, they made their relationship official in January 2023, beginning a journey that led to a heartfelt engagement a year and a half later.
Life together is full of adventure. Whether staying active with their two beloved dogs, Easton and Ellie May, or welcoming the many foster pups Sarah brings home—26 and counting—they embrace every moment. Their love for travel takes them on road trips to country concerts, sporting events, and golf courses, with frequent visits to Miami to see Sarah’s godchildren. While they enjoy exploring new restaurants, more often than not, they can be found at home, where Evan—an incredible at-home chef—whips up meals that Sarah (and the dogs) eagerly enjoy.


Evan’s proposal was nothing short of magical. He planned the ultimate surprise at Sarah’s grandparents’ breathtaking property in West Virginia, making the moment even more meaningful with her family present. After Sarah said yes, Evan whisked her away for a romantic getaway at The Greenbrier, one of her all-time favorite places. There, they indulged in a relaxing spa day and spent two unforgettable nights celebrating with their families—kicking off their next chapter together in the most perfect way.
To celebrate their engagement, Sarah and Evan took a trip to Charleston, where they captured their love with stunning photos at some of the city’s most iconic locations. They ended the session with a breathtaking sunset sailboat cruise, creating magical and unforgettable memories.
The couple can’t wait to begin their next chapter as husband and wife.
