How We Met

Wildcat Welcome Week 2015

When Emily and her roommates were in the market for a couch, one fateful Facebook post landed them not only a new couch, but also a special delivery. With nothing but free time and class not yet in session, Mitchell and a friend dropped off the couch the very next night and ended up staying to schmooze for a bit.

The First Date

Tapas Barcelona

Confident that Tapas Barcelona was the best first date spot in Evanston, Mitchell brought Emily there for dinner a few days later. It must have been some good sangria because they have been inseparable ever since!

The Proposal

Back in Evanston

Fast forward six years later, Mitchell and Emily graduated from Northwestern, spent a few years in DC, and settled back in Chicago. When friends suggested they go to brunch in Evanston on Memorial Day, the easy answer was yes - how could we say no to a trip down memory lane? Using a (nonexistent) sporting event as a ploy to leave the house early that morning, Mitchell made the drive to Evanston to scope out the scene. When Emily arrived on the lakefront that morning, Mitchell was already waiting, with one BIG question on his mind. Spoiler alert: she said yes!

We can't wait to write the rest of our story

Thank you for being part of our happily ever after. We'll see you on the dance floor!
