We first met Brandon and Julia on 90 Day Fiance Season 8. They met through Brandon's best friend and video chatted for the first time while Julia was working in a club in Russia. After a few weeks, Brandon flew to Julia to meet in person and eventually proposed to her in Iceland. Although Brandon's parents had previously signed him up for a farmers' dating app, these two found love all on their own.

Brandon couldn't wait for Julia to arrive in America on her K-1 Visa. They were ready to start a life together.

Brandon greeted Julia with a bouquet of flowers after she landed.

The couple went sightseeing in Washington, D.C. with Brandon's parents, Betty and Ron. Julia was thrilled to explore the American capital city, but less than thrilled that her future in-laws came along for the trip.

Soon, they headed back to Brandon's parents' farm, where the couple would live for a while. Julia was introduced to all of the animals and chores she'd have to take on.

A friend to the family, Aspen, helped Julia figure out a rhythm when it came to her duties on the farm. Julia was used to city life and this was a bit of a culture shock for her.

At times, Brandon and Julia struggled with Betty and Ron's house rules. Julia disliked the "separate rooms" rule the most. She felt too distant from her soon-to-be husband and often thought about moving back to Russia.

Betty scolded Brandon and Julia after they broke the hot tub rules. The house rules were starting to affect their relationship, but after some back and forth, Betty and Ron allowed the fiances to stay in the same bedroom.

The couple revealed that Julia might be pregnant, which startled Betty and Ron. Later, Julia's test results came back negative and these two continued their wedding planning.

Julia tried on some gorgeous wedding gowns and modeled them for Brandon and Betty.

Brandon didn't seem very interested in wedding planning or Julia's dress, and his level of involvement worried her. Brandon admitted that although things felt rushed, he loved her and wanted to get married. He also admitted that planning the details of a wedding ceremony just wasn't his thing.

Brandon and Julia tied the knot! The couple opted for a super small church ceremony, and Julia's parents were able to virtually attend via video call amid the pandemic. Congratulations, newlyweds!

Brandon and Julia's journey continues on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? Season 6. The newlyweds prepare to celebrate Brandon’s new job offer in Las Vegas. Excited to be away from Brandon's parents for a while (and happy to be able to sleep in the same bed), Julia likes Las Vegas so much, she proposes that she and Brandon live there — a suggestion Brandon doesn’t agree with.

While in Las Vegas, Julia receives a letter from the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services asking her to come in for an interview — the last step needed for her Green Card (or so they think).

During the interview for her Green Card, Julia is told to wait a few more weeks for approval. As they wait to hear back, Julia meets with a wedding planner at Urban Set Bride in Richmond to discuss her interest in the wedding industry.

Brandon schedules time for Julia to meet his friend Melanie and her boyfriend T.J. Tensions rise as Julia’s jealous side starts to show. After Melanie questions Julia’s reasons for staying with Brandon, Julia storms out. Despite her dislike of Melanie, Julia later agrees to give her a second chance.

To their delight, Julia receives a card from the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services allowing her to work and travel while she waits for her Green Card to be approved.

Brandon’s parents want him and Julia to have another wedding or celebration that the whole family can attend. Against Julia and Brandon's wishes, Brandon’s parents surprise them during his father’s 70th birthday party.

Brandon and Julia check out an apartment. Julia loves it, yet Brandon finds it too big and expensive. Later on, Julia has a job interview to be a dance instructor at a gym club. The interview goes well, but she’s told to work on getting certified first.

The couple signed the lease for their first apartment! Now, it’s time to tell his parents. Brandon shows their new apartment to his parents as if they are still apartment hunting. After telling them the lease is already signed, his parents aren’t happy.

See what's next for Brandon and Julia on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? Season 6, Sundays at 8/7c!
