Julia and Lincoln first met in 2021 at the University of Kentucky. What began as a class connection quickly turned into a friendship built on shared homework sessions and time spent together. After plenty of persistence, Julia finally agreed to let Lincoln take her on their first date, which, with no pressure at all, included meeting his parents. Apparently it went well, because just a few days later she agreed to a second date at Keeneland.

From that point forward, Julia and Lincoln have been inseparable. Between traveling, building their post-college life together, and creating countless memories along the way, their relationship has been marked by joy, growth, and partnership. Julia has even taken up hunting as a new hobby, while Lincoln happily serves as the official taste tester for her sourdough and homemade ice cream creations. Together, they love spending time outdoors, cuddling with their dog Indy, and working on Lego sets to add to their growing collection.

On November 6, 2025, Lincoln took Julia to their favorite spot on the farm, where he had planned the perfect proposal. They are overjoyed to begin this next chapter and look forward to spending the rest of their lives together in the name of the Lord, deeply grateful for the journey and the people who have helped bring them to this moment.
