Thirteen years ago, fate brought Mike and Kristina together. Little did they know, they had grown up just ten minutes from each other without ever knowing the other existed until their friends worlds collided in college. At the time, the idea of them being together seemed (very) distant, but as the years went by, the timing became just right. Kristina returned to NYC from California and when it finally made sense for them to be together, everything fell into place perfectly. Their families were incredibly supportive, and although they kept their relationship a secret from close friends at first, their friends were thrilled when they eventually found out. (Well, Nina always knew! IYKYK) Mike and Kristina clicked and fell deeply in love. Their bond grew stronger with each passing day, and they shared a love for pizza that became a staple in their relationship. This shared "passion" led to a magical moment on 11/11 when Mike proposed to Kristina in Brooklyn, making their engagement a moment to remember forever. Mike convinced Kristina that Long Island was their future, and she couldn't be happier. Mike is the man of her dreams, and Kristina is the woman of his. Their love story is one that no one could have predicted, but everyone agrees they are perfect for each other. Their journey together is a testament to the power of timing, support, and true love. They continue to build a life full of joy, laughter, and endless adventures, proving that sometimes, the most unexpected connections can lead to the most beautiful love stories.
