We met in the Army and started dating 10 years ago. Now we’re excited to get married!
Help us share our love story in Variety, take home $20,000, and go on a triple date with Jeff & Emilie Goldblum and Charlie Day & Mary Elizabeth Ellis!
We met in Columbia, SC in 2016 by fate. Three delayed flights led us to meeting in Army training and Jon got stationed at Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) in Tacoma, WA. Olivia was at UW in Seattle for her undergrad so our training romance turned into reality. One deployment and 4 years of seeing each other on weekends later, we moved in together in 2020. Happy to be engaged in 2025 after we both got out of the Army and out of school.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Jon proposed to Olivia at Mount Rainier National Park in August 2025. We love hiking and being in nature, so it was the perfect setting for us to get engaged. It was beautiful!
What would you do with $20,000?We would use this money for our wedding in June 2027!
