Question: How did you guys first meet?

Answer: The couple shares that "the actual answer is kind of funny." They were both freshmen at the University of Southern Indiana; Conner had noticed Abigail around campus but had not yet met. The pair lived in the same co-ed dorm at school, and one afternoon, while getting out of the shower, Connor slipped on the tile floor. In doing so, he broke the back of the toilet, spilling water everywhere. Minutes later, the two girls who lived below him (one of them being Abby) were banging on his door to let him know that their apartment was flooding. "It was the first time I met Abby and frustrated her, all in the same day," says Conner.

Question: Tell us something interesting, fun, or unusual about you as a couple.

Answer: This July, we will be celebrating 11 years together. We have a 4-year-old Golden Retriever named Kylo.

Question: Tell us about "the ring." What makes it the "one" for you?

Answer: Conner says, "I wanted Abby to have something that she would be comfortable wearing daily. Something that she would look at and truly love every day. Something as precious as she is. Something that would constantly catch her eye. Ultimately, I was looking for something that resembled my love for her. After looking at different shapes, sizes, cuts, and clarity for weeks, I finally found the one I couldn't wait to give Abby." 

Question: What do you each do for a living?

Answer: Conner works in the adult beverage industry with a local distributor. Abby works in the recruiting department for a tech company out of New York.

Question: When and where did you get engaged, and what made it special?

Answer: January 6, 2023 in Siesta Key, Florida. We were on a birthday vacation for Conners' Grandmother's 80th birthday. The week was amazing and was filled with lots of family time, smiles, laughter, and great weather. A few days before leaving to come home, we went on a morning walk to the beach, where Conner asked me to be his person forever. After celebrating together on the beach, we came home to surprise Conner's family, and we then called other loved ones to spread the exciting news!
