The tale goes back, circa 2014, two young singles downloaded a then new dating app, Tinder. Two right swipes, and the rest is history. But for those of you who weren’t there (which is all of you) we will fill you in on all the nitty gritty. Julie had accepted a job promotion and moved to Charleston less than a year before meeting Sam. As stated above, their first encounter was online. Julie thought Sam was out of her league and Sam was encouraged to talk to Julie by none other than the Caitlin Yaniec, who would go on to become one of Julie’s best friends. Their first date was scheduled for a Sunday. The pair were set to meet at King Street Grille to watch the Steelers play. Julie cancelled. (The truth would come out later that Julie just wasn’t sure she could handle any more dating and was one date short of becoming the cat lady). Sam persisted. He rescheduled the date for the following Tuesday evening. Dinner at Oak and icecream at Jeni’s. Julie showed up. One order of lobster mac, two scoops of icecream and several hours of talking in Sam’s car and Julie’s plan of living the cat lady life was completely derailed. Fast forward to 4.5 years later, ONE cat, a house, hundreds of laughs and memories and the two are making it officially OFFICIAL on May 5, 2019! We can’t wait to share our most special day with all of you, those who mean the most to us ❤️
