First Date

After months of texting through Bumble (a dating app), we decided to finally meet in person at the Brigantine restaurant at the Portside Pier. We had an amazing connection from the start and ended up staying until the restaurant closed....which lasted about 5 hours. Even that wasn't enough, as we strolled down the pier to carry on our conversation. Sparks were definitely flying!

The Proposal

Our first date was such a memorable night! So as a tradition, we re-visit our spot every anniversary. On our third year anniversary, Clarence secretly created a video montage to show Kim during our dinner. He got down on one knee and popped the question....she said YES! The restaurant filled with applause and congratulations!
