How We Met

It was St Patricks days and like most 25 year olds, Nick and Annie were both out at the bars with their friends. As the night got late they both headed to the infamous basement bar, Speakeasy - where guys go to pick up girls and girls go for free drinks. Nick and his friend Ryan scanned the bar and came across a group of 4 girls, Annie and her friends. Ryan convinced Nick to go over and talk to the group, eyeing up one of Annie's friends. Nick juggled talking to the remaining 3 girls and quickly focused in on Annie because she had just returned home from a trip to Sweden and she worked as an architect. They went on their first date that week and have been together ever since.

The Proposal

Nick went all out to plan the perfect surprise proposal - Annie may have known it was coming but she certainly did not expect what Nick had in store! On a hot August day, Nick and Annie headed down to their sailboat for a couples sail. After getting out on the water, Nick hooked up the auto-tiller and asked Annie to go sit on the bow. While sitting and chatting Nick popped the question and right away they heard the cheer of friends off in the distance; Nearby awaited two boats full of their closest friends. The rest of the day was spent swimming, eating, drinking and celebrating. That night they had a cookout complete with pin-ate; It was the perfect day to start their engagement and set the stage for an amazing wedding.

The Honeymoon

For those of you interested in where these two jetsetters are spending their honeymoon, the answer is the MALDIVES! Although this may be contrary the the dog-sled adventure Annie had her heart set for most of her life, somewhere with unfrozen water is more Nick's vibe. The two decided on the Maldives as their "all-in" vacation destination and will be spending 10 days in an over the water villa at the St Regis. Nick is looking forward to relaxing, soaking up the sun and of course cocktails, while Annie is excited to face her completely rational fear of the ocean with some snorkeling and indulge in bottomless brunch!
