We will cut to the chase and proudly admit that we are a "Tinder success story." After living in DC for about a year, we both decided to give the dating app a chance to meet new people. After a few awkward dates, Vivian finally found her match: a tall, handsome, and for the Tinder world, very normal man just 2 miles away. Vivian immediately messaged him two words "Very interested" and the rest was history! We've been together for 5 years enjoying the DC area with our sweetest beagle, Lily.
Viv had just returned from working abroad in London, so Jordan planned a weekend away to celebrate her homecoming. He found a quaint cottage just an hour away where we would enjoy a relaxing weekend of hikes, wineries, and board games with Lily. Jordan being Jordan, had the perfect plan for the big proposal day: we would take Lily to the dog park, enjoy an afternoon at a winery where he would propose among the vines, followed by a celebratory dinner of champagne and risotto. Vivian being Vivian, had a slight melt down and somewhat ruined the plan. The dog park was too far, the winery was packed, and she had too much pizza at lunch that she didn't want dinner. After 5 years together, Jordan knew how to play it and ended up proposing at the perfect moment back at the cottage. We celebrated the night with garlic bread, champagne, and the world's most random movie: Paddington Bear 2. It was perfect.
