How we met

We met at Mount St. Mary's University in the summer of 2016. Sam was attending his Freshman year orientation when he met his campus tour guide, Bri. It started off as a great friendship and blossomed into much more than either of us could have imagined. We are now getting married almost exactly five years after the day we first met!

We planned our first date at Mr. G's ice cream parlor in Gettysburg, PA as any ice cream loving couple would do. When we realized they were closed for the night, we went to enjoy a couple of Sundaes at Friendly's instead. We have gone back to celebrate our first date at Friendly's every year since!

We were engaged on July 13, 2019 at The National Shrine Grotto on the Mount St. Mary’s University Campus. Throughout our time at the Mount, we spent many peaceful nights at The Grotto talking and getting to know each other better while we sat out on the bench that overlooks Emmitsburg. This spot was our favorite place to be on campus and was the perfect place for the proposal to take place!
