Tori and Branden met in 2013 at Saginaw Valley State University where they both went to college. They were friends for the next several years until one night in April 2016 when they were both newly single at a friends party and scream sang Dierks Bentley at each other into the early hours of the morning. Branden was graduating college, starting a new job, and moving back to Wyandotte in just under a month and Tori still had another year at SVSU so they were both nervous to start a relationship. But as the summer rolled on and Branden found himself driving two hours north every weekend, they realized that they really wanted to be together and Branden officially asked Tori to be his girlfriend on October 30th 2016. Since then, Tori graduated SVSU and moved to Downriver to be with Branden. They now have 8 years of memories, the home of their dreams, two dogs named Maze and Ovi, and a cat named Odin.
