Our love story began in good ol' Ellington, CT in 2015. Tricia and her sister, Christine, made their entire family dress up as elves on Christmas day and the two of them stayed in costume when they went to the Ridzon's annual Christmas party later that night. Mike likes to say he really "turned her on" whenever he pushed the button to turn on her light up antlers. Some flirtatious banter was exchanged back and forth, but Christine was so adamant that Tricia and Mike would be perfect together, that Tricia would not let her have the satisfaction of setting the two up. So, Tricia and Mike did not go on a date until finally she gave in to his corny pick up lines and they went hiking at Soapstone Mountain in Somers. They don't know if it was just because he picked her up on a motorcyle (which later broke down and they had to push to a gas station), his burly beard, or her equally clichéd sense of humor, but the rest is history! 4 years worth of memories later and we've moved to Colorado and back to Connecticut, renovated our current home and investment property, and introduced a furry pup, Breck, to our family. A few months ago Mike finally popped the question while scuba diving in South Carolina, and Trish eagerly said yes underwater! We can’t wait for this exciting new chapter to begin!

Mike was romantic enough to get the entire proposal on video, which was then found by the local news!
