Lauren & Dan met one evening in July of 2013 while both living in Fort Lauderdale. Before heading out to American Social, the local Fort Lauderdale hot-spot, Lauren had friend and bridesmaid, Brittany Moore, over her apartment for a pre-party drink. As they chatted, Brittany began to tell her about a guy she thought would be a good match for Lauren, pulling up Dan's Instagram account on her phone to show Lauren some photos. However, Lauren was insistent she wasn't interested in meeting anyone at the time. As the two arrived and made their way through the crowded bar, Brittany whispered to Lauren, "That's Dan! The guy I want you to meet!" After the introduction, Lauren and Dan truly hit it off, making an instant connection and exchanging phone numbers by the end of the night. A few weeks later they went on their first date and the rest is history (thanks, Brittany!).
