Dominic and Prudence met at their dear friend Edie's house during a party one summer night in June, and quickly discovered their shared fondness for The Beatles, Coldplay, and Maroon 5. Instantly smitten, Pru drove home that night tickled by the idea of someday having an Italian last name, and Dom hitched an adventurous ride back to his condo with Edie's now-husband, Joe. Just a couple days later, Dom called Pru as she was leaving Sunday mass & asked her out for their first date: a romantic evening of drinks at The Donahue, refreshing conversation, and a walk through Georgetown and along the river. In early July, Dom asked Pru to be his girlfriend... and has quite literally wined & dined her ever since, putting his foodie skills to good use in Paris, Prague, Peru & more. Pru is convinced that he will someday own a highly successful, beautiful, delicious fine dining establishment with all of her favorite things on the menu. On the evening of May 31st, the Feast of the Visitation, Dom proposed after dinner at The Surf Club in Miami over coffee & chocolate cake. Pru promised to raise him an army of kids and has been floating on air ever since!
