Sarah and Brian met August 29th, 2016 on the first day of classes at Seton Hall University. Brian took the empty set next to Sarah, and immediately they began sharing stories of their overseas travels and adventures. Their relationship was pretty casual for those first few months, though fellow classmates could tell something was up. First time was not the charm however, as they lost touch after the Spring semester and did not reconnect until Fall 2018. As fate would have it, they were placed in another English class together where once again the only empty seat for Brian was next to Sarah. They started casually talking, until Brian asked Sarah out to the Billy Joel concert at Madison Square Garden a few weeks later. They continued to see each other through their graduation in 2019, and eventually decided to move in together a block away from their alma mater. They chose to honor their meeting at Seton Hall by designing Sarah's engagement ring with a diamond surrounded by two sapphires. Brian proposed to Sarah at Taylor Park in Millburn, NJ on February 5th, 2022. After spending several years building their careers in New Jersey, Sarah and Brian moved back to Sarah's hometown of Charlotte, NC six years to the day that they met. The wedding will be held on October 14th, 2023 in Wrightsville Beach, NC on the Crystal Pier with a reception to follow at the adjoining Oceanic.
