We met on a dating app called Hinge, with our first date at Ika Ramen in Benson. After the restaurant announced they'd be closing early, we were forced to get the check and head outside. While Tony wanted to get drinks and continue the date, before he could even ask, Kelli stated, "My car is parked that way." Tony was under the impression Kelli was not interested. However, just a few minutes later, Kelli texted to say she had gotten home safely and would love to see Tony again. Many dates and a year later, Tony proposed on the top of the Peregrine Hotel and Kelli said "Yes!"
