Lilly grew up in Sweet Home, Oregon (yes, that is a real town) for the majority of her life, but fell in love with Florida after a Disney College Program in 2018. Her parents, Jeff and Jodi Parker, have always been supportive of her pursuits. Even though Lilly loved living close to her parents, brother Wesley, and sisters Ella and Grace, it felt right to take the leap. In spring of 2022 Lilly started a new job with Disney.

Davi grew up in São Paulo, Brazil until moving to Florida in 2013, at the age of 13. He came to the U.S. with his parents, Valdemir and Celia Arnese, his brother Bruno, and his sister Gabriela.

Also looking for a change, Davi decided to give working at Disney a try. He started working at Disney roughly one year before Lilly moved to Florida.

Lilly and Davi met while working at Oga’s Cantina in Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios Theme Park. At the beginning they didn't talk too often, until one night after closing the Cantina, Davi asked Lilly if she wanted to walk with him through the empty park together (instead of the usual route).

Upon meeting Lilly for the first time and learning about her love of animals and her family, Davi instantly developed a crush. Lilly had also developed a crush on Davi, but it wasn't until October, when they sat through a class to become Disney trainers, that she realized just how much she liked him.

After their class the two began finding any excuse they could to see each other outside of work. On November 16th Davi asked Lilly to be his plus one to the Fantasmic cast preview. He claimed it would be a group experience, however they both conveniently avoided their friends the majority of the night.

As time went on, the two became closer friends and started to realize they had shared interests and beliefs. They love and cherish their families, the Lord, and they both love talking about their passion for animals and sharing details about their board game collections (Lilly actually has said that the moment she found out Davi owns her dream board game, Stardew Valley, was the moment she fell in love with him).
