Nick and Karinne met the same way every true love story begins: The dating app Bumble. Both had the app and did not think much of it. Karinne decided to give it a shot and swiped right on Nick's profile. It was a match! After they went on their first date to the romantic spot known as Chipotle, Nick and Karinne quickly learned how much they had in common. They even realized that a couple years before they both attended the same wedding and sat at tables that were right next to each other. Fate, I think so. After several dates to mostly tacos and ice cream (their favorite), Nick and Karinne started spending almost every day together and when not together they were on the phone or facetiming with one another. Over the course of a year a lot of exciting things came their way. They adopted a dog, Reagan, Nick shared his love for John Mayer as they went to their first concert, and they attended 8 weddings with each other which brought them even closer together after seeing each others love for tearing it up on the dance floor. The summer of 2020, they adopted their second dog, Baker and became a crazy hair-covered party of four. Now comes the moment you have all been waiting for… the engagement. Nick planned a trip to the zoo lights as an early Christmas gift for Karinne knowing her love of Christmas as well as it was where they went on their first big date 2 years earlier. In the pouring freezing rain, Nick proposed in the front of the tree and had both families there watching the whole thing (some on Facetime) waiting to suprise Karinne. She said yes, and the rest is history.
