How We Met

Samir and Gabi met one beautiful summer evening on the banks of Lake Bde Maka Ska. A Friday night hangout organized by mutual friends was the perfect meet cute...after 6 months when Gabi finally asked Samir on a date to the Walker Museum. Following their walk through the galleries, when the museum closed, they mutually agreed to keep the date going by hopping over to the nearest brewery. Keep in mind, neither Gabi nor Samir enjoys beer. Both glasses of beer went unfinished, but the conversation and game of Jenga flowed until closing time.

Get Ready to Dance

Gabi teaches, organizes, and travels as a vintage swing dancer (Lindy Hop, Balboa, and Vernacular Jazz). She also has tried her hand at most Latin, Ballroom, and social dance styles.

Whether solo or partnered, the greatest gift you can bring to the wedding is two dancing feet. Before the wedding, if you're interested in finding great swing dance classes in your area, send Gabi a message.
