It all started with a swipe… and a GIF. We matched on Bumble just one month after Paige moved to North Carolina, during a hurricane—right in the middle of Cam's annual guys' trip (which left him with spotty service and minimal chances for our connection to happen). Little did we know, that simple exchange would be the start of something truly amazing.

Our first date was on September 19, 2018. We met at Streaker’s Running Club, where we kicked things off with a breakfast shot, served by our favorite bartender, Jeff. From there, we made our way to Lil' Robert’s Place to hang out at HL's open mic night. The night ended at Amici’s, where Cam worked on convincing Paige that the pizza down South wasn’t nearly as bad as Northerners made it out to be. We split a veggie pizza and celebrated with some birthday shots for Paige at midnight.

From that night on, we’ve been inseparable. Over the next six years, we built a life full of laughter, love, and countless memories together. Whether it was spontaneous adventures, cozy nights in, or celebrating milestones along the way, we knew we had something special.

Then, on October 27, 2023—after our fourth consecutive Halloween Costume Contest win at Lil’ Robert’s Place (where it all began!)—Cameron got down on one knee and asked Paige to spend forever with him. It was the perfect full-circle moment for a couple who found each other in the most unexpected way.

Now, after six amazing years together, we’re beyond excited to begin this next chapter and celebrate our love with all of you. We can’t wait to see what the future holds!
