After going hard in the Tinder paint off and on for years (or months for Kenneth), Gretchen and Kenneth met one day while they were both swiping away on the app at work! Kenneth was in Washington, DC at the time and Gretchen was at work in Baltimore, MD. They talked through text and on the phone for about a week before they met in person for a "pre date" since the first date was actually scheduled for later. After meeting they clicked immediately!
"It was the day before my 30th birthday and I just thought I was going to a surprise birthday party that Kenneth was planning for me. I was met with smiling faces from our family and friends at Northwest Regional Park in Baltimore, MD. I was basking in all of the birthday love when Kenneth asked me to run a quick errand with him. I was a bit skeptical but I went with him anyway. When we got back to the park, all of our family and friends were lined up and the ruse was that we were taking a group picture. My best friend took a few photos and came over to show me how it looked. I looked at the screen and saw everyone holding up "Will You Marry Me?" in balloons. I turned around to see and Kenneth was down on one knee. "Who meeeee????" Your girl was speechless." - Gretchen
