On their first date Sam was generous enough to travel all the way to New Jersey, a very dark and mysterious place for most New Yorkers. Helen locked eyes with another brown guy who she initially thought was her date but luckily for her, a very handsome smiley Sam was seen right behind him. Helen still remembers to this day how effortless it was to talk to him and how nice it felt to walk next to him. They both fell in love without even realizing it. A week later he took her out for her birthday and presented a single rose. Helen was impressed but tried not to show it....and failed. Three weeks later she invited him to her best friend's wedding and he braved through it all. He pretended to like mussels for her and she pretended to care about hockey and they've been like two peas in a pod ever since. They both wanted to visit Greece ever since they were kids and one day decided to make that childhood dream happen. In Santorini, Sam proposed with the most special ring and made her cry like a baby and the rest is history!
