Like most couples these days, Jason and Ellie met on Bumble. Starting with a tagline about string cheese, their first date was at the Junction, a local dive bar in Southie. Not wanting to impose, Ellie suggested enjoying wing night and beer- which led long conversations and closing down the bar. On their second date, Jason went to Ellie's housewarming party - after too many rounds of games, Jason left without saying goodbye. Thinking all was lost, they went on a third date the next day. Little did Jason know that Ellie loves mini golf and ice cream! After three dates, they knew they wanted to continue dating, and as they say, the rest is history!
After carrying the engagement ring all around Bermuda’s Island, the last day it settled on a towel in front the most serene blue waters they’ve ever seen. Without phones, no work, no dog(sorry Emmy) and the beach to themselves, they spent the morning sharing stories of past and future under the sun’s heat, clebrating their 4th year together. In the afternoon a lone tourist walked the beach to take pictures, and that’s when the ring went in Jason’s pocket for the last time. Posing for a picture with the ocean at their backs, He got down on one knee and mustered through a “will you marry me?” and although shaking Ellie said “yes”. And He did it again on the cruise that night!
