Allie and Dan had their first date on October 6th, 2022 at Mulligan’s in Hoboken, New Jersey having matched on a dating app. Allie’s profile included Providence College alum, photos from the Jersey Shore, and she lived in Hoboken… Dan was quick to note that Allie could be his perfect match. Their first date was more momentous then Allie was prepared for as Dan’s nephew, Ronan Bennett was born just 20 minutes into their first shared Guinness. Allie loved how Dan’s “family group chat” was blowing up on their first date and thought that Dan must be a big family guy as they both started sharing stories of their nieces and nephews. Dan loved that Allie continued to agree they would get another Guinness, undeterred by how late it was getting on a school night. Since that date, Allie and Dan spent every weekend together until he moved into her Hoboken apartment in 2023. Date nights in Hoboken and Jersey City, countless weekend trips to Sea Girt, LBI, and Providence in the Bronco, a wedding in Portugal, a Breen-Bennett family trip to Disney World; Allie and Dan quickly fell in love as they became inseparable. Fast forward to March 22nd, 2024, Dan and Allie drove up to the Finger Lakes together to pick up their chocolate lab puppy, Brooks, who Dan insisted would be a foundational part of starting their family. And then their Wolf Pack was three. A few short months later, Dan proposed to Allie on June 15th with Brooks by his side on the beach in Sea Girt and their family nearby to celebrate! Providence (and Hinge) are to thank for allowing their paths to cross at the perfect time in each of their lives. They were in fact, a perfect match!
