It all began in a pool in Las Vegas where Mike went on a trip with his friends Dave and Michelle. On that trip he met Jessica and Andy as well, who happen to be close friends of Victoria. One afternoon, Michelle, Jessica, and Mike were hanging out in the pool. Somehow Victoria was brought up in the conversation and they both turned to Mike and a light bulb went off in their minds. "Oh my God! Victoria and You will be perfect for each other! We are going to introduce you two when we get back. That is going to be your future wife!," they said. At the time Mike just laughed it off and agreed to meet her. Later on Jessica called Victoria and said, "I just met your future husband!" Victoria laughed it off and agreed to meet up as well. Michelle and Jess put together a dinner at Michelle's house so Victoria and Mike could meet each other. Neither Victoria or Mike had ever been on a blind date like this so they were both nervous. The date to meet finally came and Mike arrived first. He waited patiently while having a drink with his friends. Meanwhile, Victoria was contemplating if she wanted to go or not. Somehow, Jessica was able to convince her to go. When she arrived, Mike stood up and thought to himself, "Wow she is beautiful!" Victoria as she shook Mikes hand thought to herself, "Wow, He's gorgeous. I've never seen a man this good looking!" It was off to a good start but both of them were nervous. As the night went on, both looked for moments to speak to each other, but it was tough because it felt like their friends were watching all of their interactions. After plenty of glasses of wine and cocktails, both Mike and Victoria's nerves subsided. After that, they spent the rest of the weekend going on dates together and the rest is history! *DISCLAIMER: The Groom wrote this.

The proposal happened on the magical island of Capri, while on a 3-week Italian vacation. Mike nervously carried around the ring for the first half of the trip. All the while, Victoria had no idea about the numerous friends and family group chats that were taking place, tracking of their instagram stories, and anxiously waiting for the proposal!
