We met the modern way — on Hinge — but what followed felt timeless. Our first evening together began at Hapa Sushi in Denver and continued at a Russian cocktail bar that quickly became our favorite. What was meant to be just one date turned into the start of a lifetime together.

Anthony surprised Natalie with a carefully planned staycation at the historic Brown Hotel, along with an early birthday gift of couples photographs. Strolling through St. James Court, they captured the timeless charm and beauty of Old Louisville. In the midst of the photo session, Anthony surprised Natalie with a proposal. The evening ended with an intimate dinner, celebrating their engagement and savoring the joy of the moment together. The following morning, Anthony planned a brunch with their closest family, adding one final surprise by flying Natalie’s mother, Vanna, in to share in the celebration.
