Aaron and Elena met in December 2019 through mutual friends. After a night of catching glimpses of each other at a bar downtown, Elena used a little liquid courage and made the first move. They talked and danced all night, and like the gentleman he is, Aaron called an uber for Elena and gave her his jacket to make sure she made it home safe. (Who says chivalry is dead?!) Isolating during a pandemic brought them even closer in the months to follow, and Aaron admitted he loved Elena one summer night. The following June he proposed.
