"Bryleen" met during summertime at Port Waterfront Bar & Grill in Greenport, NY thanks to their mutual friend Seth and Eileen's older sister Christine. As Eileen would put it, it was as if she was talking to an old friend and they hit it off right away. But, Bryan was "tied down" at the time and therefore nothing came of it, even though, Eileen's sister, Christine, picked up on something special, as older sisters do, and told Eileen "I have a feeling you will be seeing him again." Fast forward a few months later to November when "Bryleen" bumped back into each other in Greenport, and this time Bryan was single. After another evening of talking, their first date was set for the following evening. From there, the rest is history. Their "I love yous" were said that New Years Eve and from there on out they became each other's best friend and knew they wanted to build a life together. On September 26th, 2021, Bryan popped the question at a location sentimental to the both of them during sunset at the Peconic Bay Yacht Club. Eileen said "duh" and here we are today!
