Engaged for five months. What they do: Scott, 28, is a freelance writer and dancer, and Jackson, 35, is a wedding photographer and the owner of Acroma Studio. How they met and got engaged: When Shagari Jackson invited his then-girlfriend Jacie Scott to his photo studio soft opening, Scott never suspected Jackson would be popping the question. The two were friends for eight years before they started dating.
They both attended LSU, and when their best friends got married, Scott and Jackson grew closer than ever. Little did she know Jackson had something else planned. Scott turned to someone to ask if Jackson planned on doing a thank you speech. That was when Jackson got on one knee asking her to marry him. How they make time for each other: The couple is in full wedding planning mode but still prioritizes quality time. You want to keep that spark, keep it fresh and switch things up.
Their favorite date night activities: Their ideal date nights typically include Jackson cooking smothered okra or gumbo at home and sharing a bottle of wine.
