Who said dating apps don't work? Before the engagement, came dating. Before dating, came swiping. Arielle and Luke first met on Bumble the dating app. Silly gifs were exchanged, and the rest is history.
After a few weeks of texting back and forth, they decided to meet up at Commissary Coffee in Burbank, CA. Arielle was a nervous wreck while Luke...well, Luke was 15 minutes late. Arielle was about to leave when Luke walked in, flashed a smile, and said "Arielle, right?" She thought he was SO handsome, she stayed put. They chatted for 7 hours, forgetting to eat (and that's a big deal if you know them)!
Arielle and Luke waved goodbye to their pals and moved into a small apartment together (where they still live - hence the #1 ask in the registry!) right after the pandemic came to a close. They both agree that it is still one of the best decisions each of them has ever made.
Surrounded by their family and friends, Arielle said yes to Luke, and Luke said yes to Arielle (yes, they both proposed!). The night commenced with happy tears, popped bottles of champagne, and a lot - A LOT - of dancing. Easily the best day of both of their lives (thus far)!
