Nick and Emily can't pinpoint the very moment they met each other, but Emily had her eyes on him starting in middle school. At a young age, Nick was helping his mother, Reneé, move furniture in her clients' home in Atlanta, which at the time, was Emily's parents, Hugh & Glenna. Of course, both Nick and Emily were too shy to ever speak to one another. Nick and Kathleen, Emily's second oldest sister, were in the same class together at Woodward Academy in Atlanta, and also were in the same friend group, giving Emily another connection to her future husband. After high-school, Nick and Emily went their separate ways, attending different colleges and living in several different states before settling in Charlotte, NC, where they currently reside. Needless to say, they believe it was part of a much larger plan than of their own for how they became reconnected. They crossed paths in today's digital dating world and met for drinks in February 2018. From there, they learned "the heart wants what it wants. There's no logic to these things. You meet someone and you fall in love and that's that." - Woody Allen
