She helps him promote his brand and get more followers on his YouTube channel. She also manages his other social media accounts and takes great efforts to garner more followers for him.

Their wedding photographer, Melissa Babasin revealed that the couple was planning a tiny elopement in their backyard even before the coronavirus hit the world.

On her Instagram, Melissa uploaded a picture of the two locking lips and wrote below it:

“So these two are getting hitched tomorrow! I have been waiting so long to document this special day for them. Luckily they had planned a tiny elopement in their back yard all before COVID hit.
