Dana and Jason were introduced by Jason's childhood friend in November of 2019. The timing was not quite right, and they never ended up going out. One year later, November 2020, a mutual good friend of theirs, re-introduced them. They had made plans for a Sunday Brunch date at Rivertail in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, but an impromptu double date with the mutual good friend who set them up, ended up being planned the Saturday night before. The first date (double date) was at Pummarola, on November 14th. They had such a great time, they kept their plans for Sunday at Rivertail. A day later, Jason had to quarantine due to a work exposure from COVID-19, and the next two weeks they virtually dated, having wine nights & staying up into all hours of the night talking on facetime. The laughing was endless!! Once quarantining was over, Dana went to Miami to meet Jason for a wine picnic by the Bay and a late night sushi bite, followed by watching Rocketman! All that was left, was ensuring Dana loved Jason's dog Stella, aka "the Beagle Bug" - and of course they were a match made in heaven!! Things took off from then; they soon fell in love! Moved in together in April 2021. Jason proposed a few months later on Halloween, Dana's favorite holiday, in the middle of trick or treating, catching Dana by a complete surprise, when Jason hid the ring in a pumpkin bucket. With their families nearby, they celebrated shortly after! They set the date for May 29, 2022, and they can't wait to celebrate with everyone!!!!!
