Cory and Cat met in Jersey City and quickly bonded over their shared love for cats, ice cream and craft beer. Within the first six weeks of knowing each other they took a road trip to Maine to hike Acadia National Park and drink sour beers at all of Portland's best breweries. It was on this trip that they knew they could do this thing called life together, forever. After many more hikes, brewery visits, vacations and scoops of ice cream, Cory proposed on their two-year anniversary while in Michigan and Cat of course said yes. Cory may have asked for Midnight's blessing before Mr. Shaw's. Their wedding date is coincidentally the same date as their first date and their proposal date!
