During the chaos of the pandemic, Rachel and Chad’s paths crossed on August 7, 2020, at a country bar called The Ranch—a detail they laugh about but hold close as the start of their story. Just a month later, on September 3, 2020, they officially started dating and have been by each other’s side ever since. Together, they’ve welcomed each other’s family and friends with open hearts, traveled, celebrated milestones, and launched their careers. Now, they’ve built a life together in Richmond, VA, where they share their home with their dog, Maxy!
