They met the good old fashioned way... on Bumble! Cole and Cecilia matched back in 2020. Due to COVID, they spent 3-4 months trying to coordinate their first date which finally happened on September 5th. By the second date, Cole knew Cecilia was the one. After less than 1 year, Cecilia got into grad school in St. Louis and Cole made the crazy decision to follow her to continue growing their relationship. There, they adopted Rhino at a Humane Society after discussing how fun it would be to go look at dogs over breakfast that same morning. You may be thinking these are some impulsive or haphazard decisions, but Cole promises these are some of the easiest decisions he's ever made. Towards the end of the graduate program, Cecilia and Cole decided to move back to Tampa to be close to friends and family. Fast forward 8 months later, Cole proposed at home. It was perfect. They have been thinking about their wedding for over 2 years and cannot believe the day is almost here! They have spent the last ~6 years merging their lives and are so excited to have everyone important to them in the same room to celebrate their love.
