Ryan and Abby have an adorable love story! They first met at Apple Annies, where Ryan was dressed in a suit and Abby was waiting for her friends. Abby thought Ryan looked like a model and they hit it off instantly. Ryan even walked Abby to her car at the end of the night like a true gentleman. Abby was so smitten with Ryan that she called her mom right away and told her all about him. The next day, she texted everyone she knew who was at Apple Annies that night to find out Ryan's name. She then found him on Instagram and followed him and as fate would have it, Ryan slid into her DMs an hour later, asking her out for coffee and a stroll in the park. They have been together ever since! Their first date was at the Rail Trail in Florence where they walked and drank smoothies.
Ryan proposed to Abby on a beautiful day, April 15th, 2023, in their favorite place in the world - Brookgreen Gardens. They love spending their weekends there, walking and admiring the stunning property. On the day of the proposal, they reached the garden gate, and the groundskeeper let them in for free! They were both surprised, but happy to receive free admission. As they strolled through the garden, they stumbled upon a wedding being set up and realized the groundskeeper thought they were part of the wedding party due to their attire. They continued walking and eventually ended up in the Poetry Garden, a place that did not hold any significance to them at the time. They sat down and enjoyed the garden and sculptures surrounding them. Abby asked Ryan if he was ready to move on, but when they stood up, he hugged her and professed his love. Suddenly, he got down on one knee, pulled out a ring, and asked her to marry him! Of course, Abby said yes, and now their special spot in the garden is right in front of the lovely "The Crocodile" poem! They had no idea what was behind their chairs, but they now find it hilarious. Abby says it was the sweetest intimate moment, and she is so thankful for Ryan and the unique way he proposed to her!
Abby and Ryan are just the cutest couple! Abby loves Ryan's amazing heart. She says he is the most patient, kind, brave, humble, and intentional man she has ever met, and she absolutely loves how he helps with the cooking and cleaning. Ryan, on the other hand, cannot get enough of Abby! He adores everything about her, from her infectious energy to her inspiring drive. He loves how she pushes him when he needs it and always shows him she cares and encourages his sweet tooth. They love going on walks, hikes, and adventures together. They always make sure to indulge in their mutual love for coffee. Abby and Ryan, congratulations on your engagement, your Memories by Lexi family cannot wait to capture all your upcoming memories!
