Luckily, Kirsten's roommates wanted to throw a house party, one which Andrew attended only because he was a friend of a friend of a friend. Andrew was too shy to talk to Kirsten until she walked over to the stereo and turned on a song by The Replacements. Their first date was to the local arcade where Kirsten whooped Andrew in Street Fighter. She made a terrible pun about the game character Chun Li, and to this day Andrew says that this was the moment he knew she was the one.
Andrew proposed to Kirsten on their 3 year anniversary. He then immediately surprised her with a beautiful engagement party full of friends and family! It was a perfect evening.
