Tanner and Nicole met in September of 2014. She was studying abroad in Florence, Italy and he in Vienna, Austria. He traveled to Florence to visit with a friend of his new travel buddy, who just happened to be Nicole's roommate. They met up outside the Duomo and spent the night on the town, gallivanting around Florence's bars and ending the night at a "secret bakery" with warm croissants at 4am. The rest was history.

After a series of flight delays and travel issues, Tanner and Nicole decided to clear their heads one Saturday in August and go for a hike in the mountains of Banff, one of their very favorite things to do. While hiking on that chilly morning, Tanner got down on one knee and popped the question! Nicole was absolutely stunned but it didn't end there— they ran back down the mountain for what Nicole thought was a brunch of her favorite foods, Mexican and Mezcal Margaritas. It turned out to be all that and more! Nicole and Tanner's closest family and friends all gathered together to celebrate the occasion, from New York to Camrose, Calgary to Chicago and everywhere in between.
