Our Story

At the start of the pandemic, Dan left his Wilmington, DE apartment and moved back in with his parents. Who could have predicted this would lead him to meeting the girl of his dreams? Dan was now within Julie’s ten-mile radius on Hinge and, luckily, just met her 5’ 8” height requirement. After three months of endless texting, calls and video chats, the spark that started online continued in person. We walked around the Schuylkill River Trail, talking as if we had known each other for years, before ending our seven-hour first date with some red wine and home-made chicken parmigiana. We quickly became each other’s social lives, falling in love as the world changed around us. We have been inseparable ever since, moving in together in February 2021, buying a house in October 2021 and getting engaged in August 2022. This is only the beginning of our story. There is still so much left to experience together in the years ahead, including our first trip to the movies. We look forward to this next chapter and celebrating with you on September 30, 2023!
