Dave and Laurie met the way most do today, by swiping right on an online dating app! While this helped to introduce them, their first date was at Bar Louie in Patriots Place. After only a few dates and endless conversations, the dating app was deleted!
Laurie and Dave sailed to Martha's Vineyard for a week long vacation in early August. Hurricane Isaias hit the island mid-week, but that didn't stop Dave from getting down on one knee at a Gazebo in Oak Bluffs at sunset that evening.
