Olivia attended a family dinner where she met Lucas — her sister-in-law’s cousin. After some friendly conversation (and a few pointed questions), Lucas casually mentioned he had a friend he thought she’d be really compatible with. That friend? His college buddy, Luke Harper.

Figuring she had nothing to lose, Olivia gave Lucas the green light to share her number, and a couple of weeks later, the first text came through. What followed was something of a real-life Love is Blind experience: months of texts and long phone calls, getting to know one another without knowing what the other even looked like.

Eventually, curiosity and connection led them to plan their first in-person meeting in Miami, Olivia's hometown. Luke came down for 12 days, and by the end of the trip, it was clear something special had begun. Two weeks later, Olivia was in Tampa for her first visit.

Everything about their relationship felt easy — filled with laughter, comfort, and that undeniable click that only happens when it’s just right. Whether it’s spending a cozy night in playing video games, kayaking through Florida’s rivers, or taking spontaneous beach trips, Luke and Olivia have always found joy in the simple moments together.

On April 26, 2025, Luke proposed in the garden of his parents’ home, surrounded by the scent of blooming gardenias — the same place where they’ll be saying “I do.”

They couldn’t be happier to begin this next chapter as Mr. and Mrs. Harper, alongside their beloved dogs, Lucy and Georgie (yes, they’ll be part of the celebration too!).
