Our Love Story

Our Love story began back in 2021.... We met on Hinge in February 2021, and from the start, there was something different. Our first date was on February 26th—we went for sushi (yes, sushi on a first date… risky, but totally us!). While sushi might not be the most graceful meal to start a relationship with, it was perfect. We ended up talking for hours, completely wrapped up in conversation, like we’d known each other for years. Brendan has a gift for spontaneity, and Kayleigh quickly found herself swept up in last-minute hikes, early morning breakfasts, all you can eat sushi dates, and even a surprise trip to Lake George in June 2021. It was on that trip that we made it official—and the adventure hasn't stopped since. From exploring new cities to hiking new trails, trying new foods, and soaking up different cultures, our relationship has been filled with moments that have shaped our story in the best way possible. Then came one of our favorite adventures yet: Iceland. On February 24th, 2025, as the sun rose over the black sand of Reynisfjara Beach, Brendan got down on one knee and asked Kayleigh to marry him. It was surreal, breathtaking, and absolutely perfect. And now—we can't wait to begin our next chapter.
