Mark will tell you it began at QuikTrip, where he saw Sidney working the register. Sidney will tell you it is at Chiefs games, where she was a season ticket holder and he was the Vodka Lemonade vendor that worked in her section. A friendship grew for years through concerts, parties, and amazing Chiefs games shared together. Eventually they started dating in 2020. Although both were in college, a unique experience of being unemployed and stuck mostly at home gave almost a high school feeling.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Besides countless Chiefs games watching Mahomes magic. We had our wedding at a music festival in 2024. Electric Forest in Rothbury Michigan was Sidney's favorite destination. It was a dream to get married in their rainbow chapel in the middle of a forest. Sid sported a white tutu, and Mark wore an Elvis inspired button up. Their friend Tyler, who Sidney met in Kindergarten and Mark worked with at Chiefs games, wore a tie dye suit to be the minister for the wedding.
What would you do with $20,000?We just bought a house last year. We would use the money to fix up some things on the house. Specifically, we would like to re do both of our bathrooms and update the plumbing.
