Good things come to those who wait, and we can't wait to celebrate with you all!

It started with a "subtle" nudge. It was time to finally meet a nice guy, Nina's mom "gifted" a Match.com subscription & "encouraged" a course that would change her life forever. "You need to go on at least 3 dates, meet new people." Nina had no idea while she was wasting time kissing frogs her Prince Charming was just 3 dates away. (Hint hint guess who turned out to be number 3!) Now, admittedly we don't always get things right the 1st time around...so there may have been more than 1 first date. There was a formal sit down dinner or 3 but something wasn't quite right. We ditched the old school dates and formalities and went straight for fun...we mean booze! We went to a shared favorite local bar & after a few drinks & even more laughs, we knew we were on to something really special. By the time we started dating officially (the 3rd time round) things changed & Nina had a new man in her life. He was handsome, protective, & loved her unconditionally. Luckily, for Alex he only weighed 9 pounds. Allergy attack after sneezing fit, Alex finally found/made his fit with Nina and her fur baby Pippin. Alex was able to demonstrate his love for Nina and earned Pippin's trust and devotion & Nina found room for 2 men in her heart. What started as a simple family dinner and an innocent coffee stop at Wawa, dinner with Alex's mom turned into a day Nina would never forget. Rewind to another family gathering in NY: Alex dragged Nina's dad into a garage on a rainy day to ask the first most important question he would ask in his life. Fast forward to the day of asking the second, Alex had to really go for it and that he did. He made a huge banner (see pics) and got Nina's parents to hold it while on the roof. Both families hid around the house and their friends parked down the street to pop in and celebrate the surprise. He had his mom create a diversion to get himself set up and even had his best man hiding in the trees to capture the whole thing on camera. She said yes!
