It all started thanks to Brett’s sister, Chelsea, and a well-timed volleyball friendship. Chelsea had been scheming for years to set these two up, but the stars (and Brett’s schedule) didn’t align until the spring of 2024. Brett was finally open to meeting someone, and Jade only agreed after confirming two crucial details: 1) Brett is obsessed with dogs, and 2) his level of coolness matched Chelsea’s. (That bar is high.)

Their first date? Casual and low-key… if you consider front-row pit tickets to Chris Stapleton low-key. Brett surprised Jade with the tickets, and their first kiss happened that night to Fire Away — a song that’s since become their unofficial anthem and go-to kitchen slow-dance jam.

From that moment on, they were basically inseparable. They got scuba certified, knocked out national parks like it was their job, picked up pickleball (and, more importantly, a new puppy), and somehow started documenting all their adventures under the umbrella of BJ hashtags. And before you ask — it stands for Brett and Jade. Get your head out of the gutter.

Fast-forward to the most epic surprise proposal ever. Brett planned an entire road trip to Big Bend National Park without telling Jade where they were going — complete itinerary and all. He rented a glass dome Airbnb under the stars (Big Bend is a national dark sky, after all), and on the very first night, he handed Jade one of his signature love letters — something he always hides in her suitcase when she travels without him. Each letter includes a new song for their playlist, a little love note, and a milestone memory. This one was different. The song was Carrying Your Love with Me, and as it played under the stars, Brett got down on one knee.

Now they’re planning a lifetime of BJ hashtags, matching airport hoodies, and unintentional twinning. It’s been the best adventure yet — and they can’t wait to celebrate with you.
