It was the Summer of 2021, and in the midst of a global pandemic; Matthew and Jessi had not traveled anywhere outside of good old New Jersey in nearly two years. Jessi was growing increasingly stir crazy during the long summer days, and was frequently begging Matt to go on an adventure with her. Little did she know he had quite the vacation planned out. Matthew announced that he was taking them both on a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Iceland, where they would spend a week hiking the most beautiful national parks and go to bed each night with the northern lights glowing above. It was an incredible surprise, and Jessi was absolutely speechless. On their first night together, they took a guided tour with a bunch of rowdy Scandanavians, where they were brought to the outskirts of Reykjavík (the capitol of Iceland!) where he popped the question while the sky was glowing above them. Jessi said "OF COURSE!" - and they celebrated the Nordic way, with Vodka and some very satisfying hot chocolate. After traveling around Iceland for a week, they made their return to the states to tell their families of the good news - they both decided to spend the rest of their lives together. & The rest, is history...
