Engaged February 16th, 2017 at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Park.
Their First Trip Around the Sun Together

It started out with food. On May 16th, 2016, these two met each other at the Sweet Escape Cafe in Celebration, FL and immediately began talking about the places that they’ve lived and traveled. Good conversation led them to have some ice cream together and an exchange of phone numbers. Five days later they decided to meet up again for breakfast at Keke’s Breakfast Cafe in Hunters Creek, FL where Bradley mentioned to Jenny that he “could hold [her] hand.” Three days later they met up again and did just that: They held each others hands while walking around Universal’s Islands of Adventure after sharing a Spicy Poke Dip at the Cowfish restaurant at Universal’s Citywalk. Another three days later, on May 27th, these two souls found their way to Disney’s Animal Kingdom to enjoy the park’s very first night-time opening! Nearing the end of the night, the new Tree of Life Awakenings show came to life and Bradley took the opportunity to kiss Jenny as soon as the show finished. It was perfect!
Over the next couple of weeks they visited Epcot with a few of Bradley’s friends and his brother Brandon, he made a “Tonga Toast” brunch at his house for Jenny to introduce her to his brother Taz (who was visiting from Illinois), they went out to see the Jungle Book movie at Disney Springs, tried out some cupcakes at Sprinkles Cupcakes, enjoyed sushi at Splitsville, went Indoor Rock Climbing with Taz at Aiguille Rock Climbing Center, watched a few movies together on Bradley’s couch (Jurassic World & The Martian), went out on a date to 310 Nona (New American Cuisine), and then he finally asked her to be his girlfriend on June 10th!!! But, she needed more time to think it over! So, he had to humbly set aside his pride for awhile. Over the next few days they spent time at Animal Kingdom with Bradley’s brothers, Brandon and Taz, and then Jenny introduced Bradley to her sister, Sharyn, and her friend, Whitney at Hollywood Studios. Finally, after lunch at Pom Pom’s Teahouse & Sandwicheria on June 14th, almost a full month after meeting each other in Celebration, Jenny finally agreed that they were officially a couple and it went up on Facebook.
Over the next few months, the couple did many things together including: watching Finding Dory at Disney Springs, enjoying Disney’s “Wishes” fireworks show at Magic Kingdom, spending a day at Hollywood Studios, traveling out to Cocoa Beach and kayaking around Brevard Zoo, visiting the Orlando Science Center with Jenny’s parents, sister, and nephew, met up with Bradley’s friends Jon & Amanda at Universal Studios, explored the Wild Africa Trek at Animal Kingdom, and met up with Bradley’s friends Andrew & Kathy, Jenny’s parents and the Alstons (her sister, brother-in-law, and nephew), and her friends Reba & Whitney at Universal’s Islands of Adventure. They also tried many new restaurants together and attended a few church services together as well.
Since then they have traveled to Los Angeles, CA; Austin, Texas; and St. Petersburg, FL in August. They also traveled to Chicago, IL together in October and visited Savannah, GA and St. Augustine, FL in December. “We Are Explorers” became their motto. In keeping that motto true, they have planned for a trip to Switzerland and Italy together in July and will experience their very first Disney Cruise together this December. On the horizon is a potential move to Italy in 2018! And they know they have to fit in a trip to Hawaii and Japan as well.
They have met many of each others friends and family, enjoyed many delicious foods and experiences together, picked out a regular church to attend together, went on many walks together, challenged each other on FitBit, occasionally ran together, attempted stand-up paddle-boarding together, rock climbed together, and went kayaking together. Together, they love spending time at the Disney parks, enjoying the outdoors, traveling to new places, and trying new foods.
On February 16th, 2017, Bradley and Jenny were heading to Disney’s Animal Kingdom to enjoy a VIP experience at the show Finding Nemo – The Musical before enjoying a delicious meal at Tiffins, the park’s premier restaurant. At the end of the show, the couple were invited to meet the cast backstage for a special meet-and-greet. Jenny was really excited to meet the cast because this is her favorite show at Animal Kingdom and she had never had the chance to meet them before. During the photo shoot, Bradley interrupted the entire cast to make an important announcement and asked Jenny to be his wife. She said, “Yes!”
