Connor’s mom, Kelly, is a flight attendant with Bailey. One day, she was working a flight to Amsterdam with Bailey’s friend Bridgette. During their eight-hour flight, the two got to chatting, and Kelly mentioned that her son was considering a move to Denver, Colorado, where Bridgette was living at the time. As they talked about Denver, Kelly shared that she secretly hoped Connor would find “a nice Minnesota girl” so he’d stay closer to home. That’s when Bridgette said she had the perfect person in mind, and the planning had begun! After a few texts to both Bailey and Connor, they agreed to go on a blind date. Their first date included a long walk around Minnehaha Falls, followed by ice cream at Nelson’s in St. Paul. From the very beginning, they clicked, and from that moment on, they were inseparable. The rest is history! P.S. Connor later proposed to Bailey at Minnehaha Falls—the very spot where they had their first date.
