The couple met during a nice night out on the town in Minneapolis via mutual friends. Sarah still lived in Eau-Claire, so she was visiting for the weekend. They were both with a group of friends, and Luke took the initiative to chat. A lot of conversation and laughing later, numbers were exchanged. A couple of weeks later, they went on their first date at The Onion, a classic bar and restaurant in St. Paul. Luke let Sarah choose where to sit. She chose an outdoor spot that had beautiful hanging flowers right above their seats. After 2+ hours of mainly Sarah talking and Luke sneezing from the flowers, they decided to continue to get to know each other, and the rest is history.
