Noah and Stella’s first date was on a pier at the Union Terrace in downtown Madison when they were 18 years old.

Noah and Stella moved to Colorado and lived there for two years. They brought along their dog, Pumpkin. Shortly after, Stella drove back to Wisconsin to get their dog, Nellie. They went on hikes, met new friends, and made plenty of stops at the coffee shop for pup-cups. One year later, Pumpkin went to doggy heaven. The house felt empty and Nellie needed a friend, so Stella drove back to Wisconsin (again) and got their dog, Rogue. Nellie and Rogue fell in love instantly and have been inseparable ever since. In 2022, their little family decided to move back to Wisconsin to be closer to their family and friends.

Noah proposed to Stella on a random Tuesday night at the Monona Terrace in downtown Madison. The proposal was followed by surprising Stella with their close family and friends waiting at a bar to celebrate!

Noah and Stella purchased their very first home on November 4th, 2024.
