It started with a swipe right on Facebook Dating. Jason and Ali matched, started chatting, and before long, Jason took a leap of faith and asked Ali out to Cinco de Mayo in Smiths Grove, KY.

Ali's coworker, Britney, had gone to high school with Jason and assured Ali he was "normal," aside from his love of cars and racing. On the drive to dinner, Ali was so nervous she almost turned around, but her friend Hannah talked her into taking a chance. After dinner, Ali was sure Jason hadn't felt the spark, but he texted before she even made it home to Bowling Green.

Early on, Jason told Ali he wasn't sure what he wanted. Ali was scared of how fast her feelings were growing, but something told her he was different, and she couldn't walk away. Right before Christmas 2023, Jason made it official and asked Ali to be his girlfriend.

The years that followed were full of highs and lows, and eventually, a rescued mini Aussiedoodle named Mavrick, who completed their little family.

Then one evening, Jason asked Ali to dinner at Steak N Stone in Leitchfield, KY. Ali had a feeling this date was different, and she couldn't stop shaking as she got ready. When Jason arrived, he opened the car door and said, "Before you get in, I have something you may want to wear tonight and for the rest of your life." Right there in the gravel driveway, Jason got down on one knee and asked Ali to be his wife.

Of course, she said yes!

And now, they're racing toward forever.

Join Jason and Ali as they say "I do"
