We're getting married!!!

Andrew and Nicole met, you guessed it… on Hinge — just as Nicole was about to take a “break” from dating, until she saw Andrew’s like on her profile...Something about him made her reconsider. Completely out of character, Nicole messaged him first. She felt bold, so she sent the first message, “Hi! you're very handsome :) ” That little spark of intuition ended up changing everything. Before their first date, Nicole almost canceled. She even told a friend she wasn't sure about going, and her friend encouraged her. She said: "Just go! You’re great at meeting new people — and you never know it may go well.” She couldn’t have been more right. Andrew planned the most thoughtful first date at Hotel Erwin rooftop, he was such a gentleman, and really impressed Nicole. From the moment they met, it clicked. Somewhere between the laughter and the late-night glow, they found themselves talking about family, faith, partnership, and the kind of love they hoped to build one day. In that moment, they both realized something rare — they were completely on the same page. Their values & life-long goals aligned effortlessly. What started as a first date quickly ignited into something deeper than either of them expected. Nicole completely fell in love when she realized how deeply she could trust Andrew — he always shows up, is a provider, successful, and genuinely kind. She’s always said he is an angel sent from heaven, answering all her prayers. Andrew quickly fell in love with Nicole too, the moment he saw how fun, ambitious, nurturing, trustworthy, and genuinely kind she was. With every day, it became clearer that this was the relationship they had both always dreamed of. God moves fast when it’s meant to be! Andrew planned the most thoughtful surprise proposal. On April 26th, 2025, their baby’s gender reveal was actually planned… and little did Nicole know that behind the scenes, Andrew had also planned a surprise engagement at Terranea. He played it off by saying, “Let’s go get brunch before we find out our baby’s gender.” As soon as they sat down, the concierge approached them: “We had a photoshoot cancellation on the beach — would you two lovebirds like to take it?” Of course they did. Once they got down to the beach, Andrew had the most beautiful proposal all set up, and he proposed. Nicole was over the moon, tears streaming, and happily said yes! But the surprises didn’t end there. After the proposal, when they arrived home, she walked through the door and to a surprise engagement party waiting, with all of their closest friends and family! They quickly started to build a life together filled with love, laughter, and a new addition to their family. Their beautiful baby boy, Wesley, was born on November 1st. Turns out, the last first date was the only ONE that mattered. And now, together, they are continuing to build a lifetime of love, adventures and memories — with hearts full, dreams fulfilled, and love always leading the way.
