Sara and Matt met in 2017 while working in the restaurant industry in Virginia Beach. At the time Sara had just graduated from Sweet Briar College and was starting to apply to nursing schools, and Matt was attending Old Dominion University. After working together for a few months, Matt and Sara went on their first date. After only a few months they realized they were each other's other half. Over the following three years they experienced many ups and downs, but stuck by one another through it all. In 2020, Sara and Matt planned a much needed vacation to her family's lake house in Northern California. After a long day of traveling cross-country they were on the deck enjoying the cool fall (humidity-free) air and stars they never get to see in Virginia Beach when Matt proposed. Sara had known the answer for so long but in the moment asked, "Are you sure?!" They enjoy spending time with family and friends, tasting fine wine, and relaxing at their new home in Northern Virginia.
