Our Story

We first met in barberschool back in 2016. We immediately had a strong connection with one another but our time didn't officially begin together until Feb 22nd, 2021.

Our very first vacation together was Vegas in September of 2021. We enjoyed ourselves so much we ended up extending our stay twice. It was Nikkis first time there & she absolutely enjoyed the weather.

This is one of our favorite photos together taken at the Bellagio in Vegas at prime steakhouse.

We moved into our very first apartment together in September of 2021 (we had practically been living together prior to this in Wheaton).

In November of 2021 we adopted our sweet fur baby Nellie. Little did we know how much love she'd bring into our home but she sure has only made our lives that much sweeter.

After two long years of renting at our apartment, we finally made the decision to become homeowners! We closed on our first home together June 2023.

On December 9th 2023. Anthony took Nikki on a date to go see the Illumination Tree Lights at the Morton Arboretum and to her surprise, got down on one knee and asked her to marry him. She said YES!

After Anthony proposed, he surprised Nikki with both of our families at a restaurant to celebrate. The amount of excitement, love and support from both of our families was so special and memorable.
