Love at first "swipe" was how our love story started! Yes, we met on the "Dating App Meant to be Deleted" aka Hinge. Zach's claim to fame is that Natalie "liked his picture first" and they instantly connected on both having traveled to Panama. Their first date was on New Year's Eve at the Pine Cope Drop, a Downtown Flagstaff tradition, back in 2019. On their first date, they shared their love for Chili's and had a 3 for Me! Zach was starting in his first year in auditing accounting while Natalie was attending her master's program for Speech Pathology. Little did they know that at the beginning of their relationship, a global pandemic would hit - and they would have no choice but to get to know each other in close quarters! They became official in January of 2020 - doing long distance for almost two years before Natalie made Phoenix, AZ her permanent home. They have shared the most amazing memories over the years including finally getting Zach to go to his first country concert, Zach convincing Natalie to become an AMC stubs member so they could go to the movies every weekend, and adopting their dog Luna! They now live in the home they bought in Peoria, AZ with Luna :) Zach proposed to Natalie on April 5th, 2025 at the Page Springs Wine Cellar & they can't wait to spend forever together!
