How We Met

1.27.2019

We first met on Bumble, a dating app! Emily was studying for her board exam for OT school and thought she had deleted the app, but Mike was still able to message her. He took his sweet time (26 days to be exact) before he decided to shoot his shot. Our first date was an impromptu brewery crawl through Sun Prairie's new breweries, Full Mile and Right Bauer. Exploring new breweries is still one of our favorite date nights!

The Proposal

9.9.2022

In September, we departed on our first European vacation together to celebrate our friend Talia's wedding in Spain. After the wedding we traveled from Barcelona to Mallorca with Aubrie (now bridesmaid) in tow. Mike kept his cool and did not give any hints that he had bigger plans for the trip! On the last day in Mallorca, we took a hair-pinned, narrow road, Se Calobra to a hidden beach. Aubrie, now in on the plan, directed an impromptu photo shoot to determine the best back drop for the proposal. To Emily's surprise, between Canyon de la Calobra, he got down on one knee!
