How We Met

Hinge - The Modern Dating App

As most of you know, Sean and I grew up in the same hometown not 15mins away from each other. However, it took moving to multiple cities (Sean) and years of bad dates in New York (Cory), for us to find each other! One day in December we were both on the app, we matched, he messaged and we set up our first date. Bar Sardine in the West Village eating deviled eggs and burrata getting to know each other as the first snow of the season fell outside.

The Proposal

He Couldn't Wait

For those that know Sean, you know he cannot keep a secret and when he's excited, it shows! Sean had a plan all set up for a proposal in December where we would go for a walk downtown, popping the question by the water and a special dinner after. He told our friends and family the date of the proposal and everyone was ready. Did Sean wait until that date? Nope! On Halloween 2021 Sean decide "I cant wait any longer" and he proposed in our living room to our favorite song while our friend hid in the bathroom to film. While it wasn't his original plan, it was perfect for us.

Charleston

Our life now

Sean and I are living in our home in Johns Island with our sweet dog Oliver. We love our neighborhood and the friends we’ve made since moving to Charleston and cannot imagine our lives anywhere else! But mostly we can’t wait to see all of you guys, our family and friends, together for our wedding!
