Sim and Lizzie met on a dating app, and their first date was on a warm November day almost ten years ago. They spent hours at one of the best tables at Blackbird Cafe, drinking lattes and getting to know each other. Sim waited less than 24 hours to call Lizzie for a second date!
Simeon proposed to Lizzie while they were hiking through the olive groves, high above the Cinque Terre in Italy. With the gorgeous, uninterrupted views of the Mediterranean, Lizzie didn't really think the day could be improved in any way. Until she turned around to see Sim on one knee! They celebrated with gelato on the beach in Corniglia, and then spritzes overlooking the beautiful seaside town of Manarola. Sim had the ring designed locally, featuring an agate that the two of them found on one of their many adventures. And the other half of the same agate is in Sim's ring!
