We're getting married!

It all started in September 2022, with a single rose… sent on Hinge. Both of them had been swinging and missing in the dating world—two hopeless romantics just waiting for that special someone. Then, out of the blue, a rose appeared in her inbox, and with it, a message that would change everything. He told her they had to go on a date the next evening—because he was about to leave for a two-week trip to Europe. A little caught off guard, but fully intrigued, she said yes. That first date didn’t go exactly as planned. They headed to Dairy Queen, only to find the inside closed. So they did the only logical thing: got their treats and ate them in the car. What started as a quick ice cream run turned into a five-hour conversation that stretched from 8 PM to 1 AM. They talked about everything and nothing—and somehow, it felt like they had known each other forever. They both knew something was different. And from that night on, they knew they were forever.
