Our story began in the summer of 2022 with a Bumble match and a dad joke. Ian asked, “What do you call an deceased indie rapper? "An underground artist” Christine... was not impressed. Let's just say, the conversation didn’t go much further after that. But fate (and dating apps) had other plans! In December 2022, they matched again—this time on Hinge. Ian kept the dad jokes to a minimum, and Christine decided to give him another chance. Our first date was at Sally's Pizza in Rittenhouse in Jan 2023, where we shared laughs, great food, and the start of something special. From that night on, everything just felt right—and the rest is history. Fast forward to July 8, 2024—while on a dreamy trip to Paris, Ian proposed in front of the Eiffel Tower, right by the Seine River. It was a magical moment in the City of Love, and one we’ll cherish forever. Now we’re so excited to start this next chapter together—and can’t wait to celebrate with all of you!
