His Story

Anthony grew up in Franklin, Massachusetts with his parents, Debora and Frank, and his sister, Tina. He spent his childhood learning to cook his family's Italian dishes, playing hockey, lacrosse, and golf, and developed a deep love for music—teaching himself to play guitar and especially loving the band Phish. His family spent summers camping throughout the Northeast, often returning to Upstate New York. Anthony attended Saint Michael’s College, where he met lifelong friends and fell in love with Vermont, before transferring to Lesley College of Art and Design to study photography. At Lesley, he discovered a passion for image-making and pursued photography professionally after graduation. He also worked various jobs in Vermont, including at Outdoor Gear Exchange and the Trapp Family Lodge—spending winters on the slopes and summers by the lake or at a Phish concert. His creativity eventually led him to carpentry, and today he designs and builds custom pieces for homes.

Her Story

Melanie grew up in Clinton, New York with her parents, Dianne and Mike, and her brother, Ryan. From an early age, Melanie could be found adventuring barefoot—climbing trees in the backyard, swimming in her aunt's pool, playing dress-up in her room. She played field hockey, basketball, and ran track, and spent summers camping in the Adirondacks with her family. She attended Syracuse University, earning a degree in Inclusive Education and French. After college, she moved to Brooklyn and taught 5th grade at a public school she loved. One summer, a colleague asked, “If you weren’t teaching, what would you do?” and without thinking, she replied, “Act.” That moment changed everything. She went on to study at the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute and began building her career in the NYC acting scene. Today, Melanie finds joy in acting, writing, producing, and creating alongside friends.

Our Story

Anthony and Melanie met in July 2022 at a mutual friend’s family party in Vermont. While their paths had technically crossed at the same party the year before, it wasn’t until that fateful Saturday morning that things really began. Melanie had gone out for an early run and came back with a freshly sprained ankle. Limping into the quiet house, she found almost everyone asleep—except for Tony. He glanced down at her rapidly swelling ankle and asked if she was okay. Fiercely independent as always, Melanie insisted she was totally fine. She wasn’t. Tony knew it—and drove her to get an ankle wrap and a splint. Later that night, they danced while the band played—Tony with his backwards snap move and Melanie hopping along on one foot. They ended the night by the bonfire, talking for hours, sharing stories and a bottle of whiskey, and listening to music as the stars faded into sunrise. Their first official date came a week later at the Jersey Shore, where Tony met Melanie’s parents. A month after that, Melanie met Tony’s entire family at Lake Winnisquam. In April 2023, they packed up Tony’s Chevy Colorado and drove across the country to Los Angeles, where they now live with an incredible community of friends—and feel lucky every day. Together, they love live music, the outdoors, good food, and sharing it all with the people they care about. Whether they’re singing with Beyoncé at SoFi, dancing to Phish at the Hollywood Bowl, surfing in Panama, or camping in Sequoia National Forest, you can bet they’re laughing and loving every moment—together.
