Our story
Blan and Chloe first met in college at Burrito Border in August 2018, though Chloe had heard his name for the first time back in 2016. Chloe's Younglife group went to Pioneer Plunge with Blan's group, but Chloe opted out due to obvious reasons... like sleeping outside, bugs, and no hot water. So, when their friend Logan realized some of their old summer camp friends were at FSU, she took the initiative to invite everyone to dinner for a camp reunion. Chloe finally got to meet the infamous "Blanimal".
The next time they saw each other was at the FSU REZ, where their friend Caroline took their first picture together and shamelessly asked Blan if he would go to Chloe's semi-formal (as any best friend would).
If you know Blan, you know two things...
1: The last thing he'd ever want to do is go to a sorority semi-formal
2: He never lets Chloe down, so of course he reluctantly agreed to go with her.
From there the group kept getting closer and spent the year throwing themed parties, pulling pranks on each other, and going on trips.
By the end of the school year, they were having so much fun together that they knew they couldn't go a whole summer without hanging out. So Blan and Aaron visited the girls in PVB.
When the fall semester of 2019 kicked off, the fun continued. The group spent the semester celebrating birthdays, going to football games, and hosting games nights.
By the start of 2020, it was obvious Chloe liked Blan. After so many months of walking to their classes together and countless hours in Dirac Library doing each other's homework, Blan finally admitted he liked Chloe too.
Despite covid indefinitely sending everyone home for spring break, Chloe kept her original holiday plans and went to Naples to visit Blan and it was then they officially became a couple.
In the summer of 2020 Chloe was excited to take Blan to North Carolina for her family trip, but it was quite a turn of events when the minute they landed Blan learned he had been exposed to COVID, so Chloe, Blan, and her parents had a much different trip than expected separated from the rest of the family.
They spent the rest of the summer going back and forth between each others hometowns.
Of course celebrated their one year how most do, picking blueberries.
While the next year of college looked different than the rest, they still made the most of it up to Blan's grauation.
Then had another summer going between each other's hometowns, little family trips, boat rides, beach walks, and tons of fish bowl.
Chloe then started her senior year at FSU.
And Blan moved to Atlanta to start working at Accenture.
Chloe graduated from FSU, and made the most of another FL summer before moving to Atlanta to start her job
Now both in ATL, they spent the next two years visiting and celebrating friends and family, staying up way too late for game nights, putting in hundreds of miles on the ATL Beltline, trying all the best coffee places, baking and cooking.
After those great years, Blan proposed
...so now we're planning a wedding...
