Officially, we met on out first day of classes freshman year when we had the same professor for our Architecture Studio. After two years of only seeing each other across studios, we ran into each other at a classmate's party in 2017 and talked the night away. Five days later, on September 21st, we went on our first date at Zeppoli's Italian Restaurant. We talked so much that night, that we didn't even touch the bread basket. We went on our second date the next night, tailgated a football game together the day after that and have been inseparable since.
After some time together at school and some time long distance, Connor proposed to Nicole on January 11, 2020 while watching the sunset on Lookout Mountain in Chattanooga, TN. He got down on one knee and barely got the words out before she said yes. We are so excited to start our lives as husband and wife and celebrate the occasion with you all in July!
