We met in college at Binghamton University playing Ultimate Frisbee. After a romcom-esque "Will they/Won't they", we started our relationship in December of 2017.

Okay, picture this: our annual friends getaway, and Alex is sweating like he’s just run a marathon. We’re supposed to be getting ready for this picturesque waterfall in the Catskills, and there’s Katie, blissfully unaware of the whole romantic plot twist brewing behind the scenes. She’s just tossed on her “I <3 Dad Bods” shirt—because nothing says “future fiancé” like a shirt from the Jersey Shore! Now, Alex knows that if Katie struts around in that shirt during the proposal, it’s game over. Total meltdown. So, quick as a flash, he and our friends pivot to plan B. There’s this adorable new bridge over a creek on the property, and everyone insists it’s the perfect place for a surprise. Katie, still in the dark, is strolling along, completely clueless. And then—bam!—while we’re all enjoying the view, Alex drops to one knee. It was absolutely magical, and I’m telling you, having our friends around made it even more special. Now, we’re all buzzing about the upcoming “I Do” festivities, and we can’t wait to celebrate with our favorite people—hopefully without any wardrobe malfunctions this time!
