Sam and Julie’s love story began in the spring of 2020 in an unexpected way—as next-door neighbors. Sam had noticed Julie around and was looking for any excuse to strike up a conversation. Luckily, Julie was a fan of his Tesla and his dog "Bash", and that became the perfect icebreaker. In the midst of COVID lockdown, their first dates had a unique twist—hours spent watching Tiger King on Sam's couch, with no fancy dinners or big outings, just laughs, company, and a growing connection. It didn’t take long for them to realize they’d found something special in each other. And, well, the rest is history.
