It all started in the summer of 2019… Lana had been invited to a friend’s birthday party on a boat on Lake Lanier. She was reluctant to go by herself but (thank goodness!) she was convinced otherwise. When she climbed aboard, she grabbed herself a drink and decided she was going to try her best to enjoy the moment and have a good time. Reaching that goal became rather easy once the boat made its last pickup, and Vinni joined the party. On a boat full of people, Lana and Vinni might as well have been the only two on the water because once they started talking - they never stopped. Vinni naturally got Lana’s phone number after the boat ride – he even bribed her by paying for her Uber. The talking continued through the night, and it did not take them long to meet up again (the next day) for their official first date at Nacho Daddy, where they both discovered the other’s passion for travel – and food, of course – and their intense love for their families. The rest is history from there. Since they have found each other, Lana and Vinni have frequented the beach and traveled the globe. Finally, on a summer night on the beach in Siesta Key, Vinni waited until sunset and got down on one knee, where he pulled out a ring and asked, “Ready to do life together?” “It’s about time!” exclaimed Lana, “of course!”
