It all began in 2019, when we connected at the gym. We recognized each other from high school, but we had never spoken. Tara, being the bold one, decided to take a chance and message Tom on Facebook to show she was interested... but Tom? He totally missed the hint! And so, like many modern love stories, ours began when we both swiped right. After a few messages, Tom quickly invited Tara out on a date to a local brewery. We instantly realized we found in each other what we had been searching for- someone kind, honest and supportive. We have been together almost every day since that first date. Fast forward to October 4th, Tom proposed after dinner at our favorite restaurant in Philadelphia. We took a walk past the apartment where we had spent five years together, and Tom got down on one knee and asked Tara to be a part of his forever. Now here we are, getting ready to celebrate one of the most memorable days of our lives, with the ones we love the most. Let's party!
