Kelsey and Weston’s story began at the University of South Carolina, where their paths crossed through mutual friends in Weston’s fraternity. Though they had seen each other around campus, it wasn’t until a weekend getaway to Tybee Island that their connection truly sparked. In a moment straight out of a movie, Weston—though not her date—offered to teach Kelsey how to swing dance under the stars. That spontaneous dance turned into late-night conversations, chance encounters back on campus, and eventually, a love story that felt meant to be from the very start.
