While Maggie and John had known of each other for years, it wasn't until Maggie was the Maid of Honor in his sister's wedding that Maggie and John really met. They got to know each other during all the wedding activities in 2020 and a vow renewal the following year due to the pandemic. It wasn't until after the beginning of 2022 that John finally reached out to Maggie. The two began texting and shortly after went on their first date when John was in town coaching wrestling for the weekend. At the time, Maggie still lived in Defiance. The two navigated future dates while Maggie was home visiting family, and the occasional visit from John to Defiance as well. Despite the distance both quickly learned that this was something special. The two bonded over their love for watching Cleveland sports, listening to music and traveling. Their first summer together, Maggie and John would take a vacation with his family to the Outer Banks (the same place where he would propose two years later) and stopped in Washington DC on their way back. In the nearly three years since then Maggie and John have enjoyed growing and exploring the world together. Maggie and John especially love exploring new breweries, baseball stadiums, and zoos in their travels. They have been to Maine, Boston, Philadelphia, St. Louis, Gaitlinburg and back to DC and the Outerbanks. The couple is especially looking forward to their weeks long trip out west this summer to see Colorado, Yellowstone, Seattle and more on their way to Maggie's family reunion in Canada. Maggie and John are looking forward to spending a lifetime of life's adventures together.
