It all started with a swipe! After matching on Tinder, we had our first date on March 27th, 2019. After our first date, Ashi spent two back-to-back weeks in Canada for work. We knew our connection was special and kept in touch the whole time Ashi was in Canada. We had our second date the day after she got back and have been together ever since!

TJ and I started camping as a couple pretty early on in our relationship and it quickly became a favorite activity of ours! On a camping trip in June of 2022, we went on a hike to a beautiful lookout point in Wyalusing State Park. While we were at the lookout point, we relaxed and caught our breath. I noticed TJ was a little quiet, but I didn’t think too much of it. After a few hiking groups had come & gone, it was just the two of us at the lookout point. TJ made an incredibly sweet speech and got down on one knee and proposed!
