Our story dates back to December 13, 2018 when we met for the first time at a bowling alley in Linden, NJ. Everything went well and we decided to continue the date at River and Rail in Cranford, NJ. Who knew that day would be the beginning of an amazing journey and our lives would be forever connected. It wasn’t until September 21, 2024 in Newport, RI when Nick got on one knee to ask Mariela to marry him, it was perfect!
