Third Time's the Charm !

Brad and Hanna took a chance and met up after serendipitously matching on a dating app. They matched because Brad and the boys were headed to Ocean City, MD for the NFL draft weekend and had to make a pitstop on the University of Delaware campus to pick up Andrews roommate. Because of the pitstop, Brad and Hanna matched, and began texting constantly. Their first date ( and first time meeting! ) occured the following week when Brad picked up Hanna and took her out for a nice dinner at Iron Hill Brewery on the riverfront in Wilmington, DE. After dinner, Hanna invited Brad to go out on campus with her and her college roommates. They started at Grotto's, and for some reason ended up at Pat's Pizzeria. It was a special night at Pat's - Karaoke Night- and Brad and Hanna stood up together at the end of the night and sang "Can't Help Falling In Love" by Elvis very loudly to the few poor townies that were still at the bar that late. They were soon inseparable, and "Can't Help Falling In Love" became their song and their story. Some things are meant to be!

Brad coordinated with friends and family to plan a friday get together at Slate Farm Brewery in Whiteford, Maryland, one of his and Hanna's favorite breweries. He contacted the band playing at the brewery that night, and asked them if they could play his and Hanna's "song" - I Can't Help Falling in Love for the proposal. After arriving, Hanna and Brad ordered drinks and took pictures with friends - everyone was smiling and trying to contain their excitement while keeping the secret - Hanna was oblivious ! Just before 7 that night, the band came through and loudly played the song throughout the brewery. Brad pulled Hanna up to dance, popped the question, and she said yes ! The entire brewery erupted with applause and cheers, and the happy couple celebrated the rest of the night with friends.
