On April 20, 2021, during a time when the world was adjusting to new ways of connecting, Sophie and Taylor connected on Hinge. Taylor, living in Memphis at the time but with her family planning a move to Georgia, set her virtual sights on Atlanta. Little did she know, that decision would change her life. Meanwhile, Sophie was deep into medical school at Emory, studying by day and swiping by night. When they matched, Sophie suggested they meet for drinks. That’s when Taylor had to come clean—she didn’t actually live in Atlanta. (Awkward.) But instead of running for the hills or ghosting her, Taylor proposed something very on-trend: “How about Zoom drinks?” To her surprise, Sophie said yes. Two people who’d never met shared virtual cocktails across state lines and timezones. What started as a casual digital date turned into hours and hours of laughter, stories, and the start of something special. Zoom might not have been the most romantic setting, but it was just the right tool at just the right time. Fast forward three years, and on May 12, 2024, Taylor made another proposal—this time in person, and a bit more traditional. And just like before, Sophie said yes.
