We're getting married!

Shoutout to Hinge for bringing us together! We met on the app in April 2020, hit it off instantly, and had our first date at Old Crow Smokehouse in Wrigleyville, a staple establishment of our early 20s. The night was perfect and we both felt right away that this was something special (apparently so did our waitress who kept the free drinks coming after hearing it was a first date). Soon after, Nathan decided to get a dog, and if you know Josiey, you know this was a green flag. Along came Basil, with our second pup, Jager, joining the family a few months later. On September 27th (recognize this date?), 2020, we became official, and have been together ever since! In July 2023, we moved in together in Old Town, Chicago, and have loved every minute of doing life together. It has been full of love and laughter, while traveling to 19 states and 3 countries, sharing countless date nights, and cozying up on the couch to binge watching Love Is Blind. Nathan proposed to Josiey on the lakefront path near one of our favorite spots on June 15th, 2024, and now we truly can't wait to spend our 5 year anniversary officially making this our forever!
