Gillian and Nick met where all good love stories start - a frat basement! Though life pulled them in different directions, they remained tied by an invisible string. Five years later, they reconnected on the Main Line while Nick was finishing his degree at Villanova and Gillian was working as a high school math teacher in Philadelphia. Over coffee, they found a shared love for the outdoors, skiing, Villanova basketball, and a hatred of each other's favorite baseball team. After a year of long distance between Philadelphia and Boston, filled with road trips and late night calls, they decided to move across the country together to Boulder, Colorado. There, Gillian dove into her dream job as a math teacher at an outdoor experiential learning school (so Boulder!), and Nick started a new software job in Denver. From October to May, they lived for epic weekend skiing adventures together. Finally, at the top of Vail's Avanti lift, with a view of Mt. Holy Cross as the backdrop, Nick popped the question. Miraculously, Gillian said yes! They can't wait to tie the knot in Gillian's hometown of Fairfield, Connecticut and officially begin their greatest adventure yet!
