How did your love story begin?

We met on our Disney College Programs in September ‘23. We worked at the same park and shared a bus. Sam let Maddie on in front of them, causing them to have to stand. We crossed paths again about a week later and had been inseparable since. Neither of us were looking to find love, but the universe knew we needed each other and exactly when.

What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?

In January 2025, Maddie visited Sam in Australia for her birthday. After 8 months of long distance, there were some nerves of seeing each other again. But as soon as we locked eyes, we went right back into how we used to be. A few days into the trip, Maddie proposed to Sam on a hike followed by eating cheese from our favorite market. The whole trip was a reminder of everything we are and everything we’re meant to be.

What would you do with $20,000?

With $20,000, we would finish paying for Sam’s visa applications, flight to get to the states, and shipping any of their valuables. Anything leftover would go towards any wedding expenses and into savings for us to move into a better apartment.
