Brooke and Mark have known each other since Middle School. They had different friend groups but one mutual friend Michaela who has been Brookes best friend since then. Mark and Brooke never really talked though and maybe saw each other when both of their friend groups hung out after school at the nearby mall. In High School after freshman year Brooke moved between schools so they completely lost contact. 2 years out of High School she had a Halloween party that she invited 20 people to. Mark, Michaela and one other friend were the only ones that showed up. Sad, but thats ok because thats when they first started talking and 2 weeks later Mark asked Brooke out on their first offical date and Its been history ever since. They officially became a couple on 10/27/2018.

After a year of searching and decision making Mark and Brooke took a trip up to New York. They decided on New York because Mark’s family lives up there, that was the state he was born and raised in and Brooke really wanted to meet his family. They stayed in his favorite family vacation spot, Lake George. which was also close to the house Mark was raised in. After a week of fun, reunions and lasting impressions they decided to go hiking on Prospect Mountian to top the whole trip off. At the top of the mountain is where Mark proposed. Brooke didn’t even let him finish asking before she said yes. Later that day they got back on a plane to go back home to Florida and share the happy news with the rest of the family.
