They met when Tess was reviewing a restaurant, Cheesetique, for a local DC food blog. Andres was her server. After a few more Friday wine nights, Tess left her number on her business card for Andres. He then texted her the next night saying, "Hey, it's Andres from last night. Sorry I don't have a cheesy pick up line." Tess thought it was Gouda enough to respond and Andres thought her comeback was Brie-lliant! We're so excited to celebrate with you as we become a Parm-anent couple!

It was an ordinary Friday night. Ed Sheeran was playing on the Alexa. We had just finished dinner and I was doing the dishes. Andres said, "Hey Tess." As I turned around I saw him on one knee and he said, "Will you marry me?" Crying, hugging, and an "are you serious?!" followed - and finally a "YES!"
