Marc and Kasey met in 2014 while they were both working as servers at Outback Steakhouse. Kasey thought Marc was intimidating and Marc thought Kasey was quiet (clearly he didn't know her very well yet.) Over the next two years they slowly became friends, and started looking for any excuse to spend time together outside of work. Finally on New Years Eve of 2015, Marc was stuck closing at Outback, and Kasey was stuck at a party with her best friends Megan and Allen, being the third wheel. Marc invited her to meet him for a drink at Irish Times and she arrived shortly after the ball dropped. Later that night Marc confessed that he had planned to kiss her at midnight, and the two finally shared their first kiss.
