The one where an Irish Lad meets a Texas Girl

Mark and Boni’s love story began on Hinge when Mark confidently dropped the line, “Fancy a drink?”—and Boni, intrigued by his bold simplicity, took him up on his offer. Their first date had a rocky start: Mark sent Boni to the wrong bar. Undeterred, she Ubered to his actual location, where they sipped cocktails and ended the night at McSorley’s, one of Manhattan's oldest pubs offering dark or light beer. Mark closed out the 4 hour date by walking Boni home like a proper Irish lad, leaving her so smitten she texted her mom, “I think I just met my Connell", fresh off a binge-watch of Normal People. Turns out, Boni’s mom had a reoccurring dream of her daughter marrying an Irishman since she was a little girl—and that dream is about to become a reality. Just 24 hours later, Mark invited Boni on a ski trip to Vermont, and she, in a bold mix of spontaneity and questionable judgment, said “yes!”—fully aware she might end up a Dateline special. Spoiler alert: Mark wasn’t a serial killer, and the trip was amazing. They hit the slopes, inhaled cinnamon rolls, bowled in a delightfully sketchy bowling alley, and washed down some truly shit pizza with equally shit beer. This was just the start of countless adventures over the past four years! The rest, as they say, is history!
