Andrew and Amanda met back in 2016 while working at Barclays, but their story took an unexpected turn in 2019 when they by chance ended up on the same flight to Australia via LAX. Their first date was watching Villanova play in the NCAA final four at Amanda's go-to Irish dive bar, Shades of Green. From then on, there was no looking back—just a lot of laughs, adventures, and dirty martinis along the way. After moving in together and becoming proud "parents" to their beloved sausage dog, Peanut, they created a home filled with love, Chicago Bears loyalty, and Winston Churchill-inspired cocktails. Andrew officially popped the question in Parma, Italy, in April 2024, with both families meeting for the first time—an unforgettable milestone! Now they’re in Melbourne, ready for their next chapter. But for their wedding, they’re heading back to the Jersey Shore, where they’ve shared some of their best memories together on countless bike rides. As Springsteen says, “Nothing matters in this whole wide world when you're in love with a Jersey girl.”
