Blake started at Ibotta in March 2015, and on his first day, was sat right next to Allie, despite being on two different teams. We quickly became friends, bonding over music ("I too am a fan of Kygo") and sports, taking middle of the work day walks to Little Man Ice Cream, and generally just enjoying one another's company. Friends and family began to hear a lot about the other, and questioned our repeated declarations that we were "just friends." In Spring 2016 we embraced that we had feelings for one another, and the rest is history!

We unexpectedly were apart due to COVID for two months, as we each moved back in with our parents, with Allie in St. Pete and Blake in Kansas City. In mid May we planned our return to Brooklyn, with Blake unknowingly coming back early and surprising Allie with the sweetest proposal reunion in our studio. We celebrated on our rooftop overlooking the East River with champagne and excited phone calls to loved ones. From Denver to Brooklyn, we're excited to kick off the rest of our journey with you.
