The date we met is far from the date we started dating. We first met at a Halloween get together during our time in college at Stockton University. Despite having an immediate connection, life had different plans for us at the time and we simply became friends, although we would see each other occasionally in passing. It wasn't until almost four years after meeting at that Halloween dorm party that we reconnected and our friendship grew into a beautiful relationship.
We love to travel and eight months into the pandemic we desperately needed a change of scenery and booked a trip to Key West, Florida. One night we took a walk on the beach during sunset and began talking about how strong our relationship is and how much we have grown together. Then, the next thing I knew Eliot was down on one knee. I said 'YES!' and we were engaged. We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with you. See you in Mexico!
