We're Getting Hitched!

Connor was living in Washington, D.C., and Michelle had just started her very first travel nursing assignment in Alexandria, Virginia. At first, Michelle was determined to use her time away from New Jersey to explore a new city on her own. After all, it was the first time she had moved away from home and to a place where she didn't know anyone. Three months later, she realized there was still so much she wanted to see and experience, but she didn't want to do it alone. So, she finally gave in and downloaded Hinge. One swipe right turned into a love story that has now spanned four incredible years and will continue for many more to come. For their first date, Connor took some of their early conversations and turned them into the most thoughtful day Michelle could have imagined. He brought her to several places that featured some of her favorite things while showing her all that Washington, D.C. had to offer. It's safe to say there was an immediate connection. What started as a first date quickly turned into hours of effortless conversation. They never felt like strangers, just two people who somehow felt completely comfortable together from the very beginning. From that day on, Michelle and Connor were inseparable. Over the past four years, they have experienced so much life together. They've moved multiple times, including their most recent move to New Jersey, traveled to countless places, and shared more meals, drinks, adventures, and memories than they can count. They've supported one another through difficult seasons, including the loss of loved ones and the heartbreaking loss of their beloved pup, Chief. Along the way, they've also grown their little family, first by adopting Lucy and then recently welcoming Piper. Through every challenge and every celebration, one thing has remained constant: they always come out stronger together. Somehow, despite the hard times, life has only continued to get better. Now, they are excited to celebrate their next chapter; their wedding and the beginning of their marriage with all of their favorite people. Thank you for being part of our story. We cannot wait to celebrate with you on October 2, 2026. 🤍 Get ready to dance the night away!
