Danielle and John met in 2015 at Binghamton University. While they had every accounting class together, their first real meeting took place at the very romantic college bar known as “The Rat.” Not long after, they went on their first official date at the movies, where John fell asleep. In his defense, he had stayed up all night helping Danielle study for an exam. Danielle may have mentioned the questionable first date to a few friends, but she decided to give him another chance and the rest is history. What started as college dating turned into something much bigger. Over the next ten years, Danielle and John experienced many of life’s phases together, including graduation, first jobs, long nights studying for the CPA, Islanders and Yankees wins and losses, and plenty of great memories along the way. On September 13, 2025, John finally popped the question. Today, they live together in Long Beach, NY, where they began building their life together, and could not be more excited to celebrate this next chapter with all of their favorite people. They are so grateful for the friends and family traveling to join them in the place they call home.
