April 18, 2026 – Tuscaloosa
Melody and Trent met in the most 2020s’ way possible – through an Instagram DM. Trent asked if Melody would like to grab a coffee. That coffee date turned into the start of the couple’s forever relationship. A few years later, Trent proposed while he and Melody were on trip to Highlands, North Carolina. To Melody’s further surprise after the proposal, Trent had all their closest friends and relatives waiting nearby for a surprise champagne and dinner celebration!
