the love story
Though Coleysia and Randall grew up in and around Selma, their worlds collided at the Johnson's Christmas Party in 2016. Randall admits that he had his eye on Coleysia for a while but it was at the party he had the opportunity to formally connect.
On Christmas Day, they went on their first date at a bowling alley in Montgomery, AL.
In 2018, they welcomed Randall Rutledge III and he quickly became the light of their lives.
After years of trial and error, in 2021, the couple learned the rhythm of love and parenting. Randall proposed on New Years Eve in the presence of their families.
