Max and Kayla first met on the dating app Hinge, where Kayla didn’t waste any time — she sent Max her number right away and suggested they go dancing. Their first date was dinner at the Italian restaurant Fiamme, and less than two weeks later Max asked her to meet him on the Naperville Riverwalk bridge. He showed up with flowers and asked her to be his girlfriend — a moment so sweet that people nearby thought he was proposing and even took pictures. From there, their story became one full of adventure and love. In September 2025, while on vacation in Colorado, Max — with the help of Taylor, Anna, and Izza — got down on one knee and officially proposed. And yes… she said yes again.
