Denise and Paul's story began on September 14, 2022 when they met on their first date in White Plains after messaging each other for a few days on the Coffee Meets Bagel dating app. There was an instant connection and they began to continually see each other that fall, from apple picking to hiking and going to Storm King Art Center. Over the next three years, they experienced many adventures together from going to Broadway shows, road trips, Caribbean vacations, Ecuador and theme parks. On May 26, 2025 (memorial day) Paul surprised Denise with a proposal at Croton Dam after a day of bike riding. Denise excitedly accepted and they are now both excited to share their love with you on their special day.
