They met at a mutual friend's house, and caught each other's eye. Neither of them were brave enough to break the ice so it was left to their friends to play match maker, and they succeeded. Chelsea and Emmet immediately hit it off and things were forever changed.
After a long frustrating day, Chelsea had almost given up on the New Year's Eve plan to go see her favorite band, The Burroughs, play at The Moxi, but Emmet convinced her to stick to the plan. After the ball dropped he had the band call Chelsea up on stage where he surprised her with a gorgeous ring and a life-altering question, and she had no choice but to say YES!
