After several years of haunting the same spots and hanging out with the same people, our paths crossed in a way that lead to real conversation after one of Paul's band's shows. We met for drinks a while later and discovered a shared love of vintage shopping, classic movies, and not hiking. I know what you're thinking: "EVERYONE loves/hates those things!" But it wasn't just common interests that connected us: "As I got to know Paul, I discovered a person who valued family, friends, creativity, a person who knew more about subjects I loved than I could ever hope to, and a person who's humor and storytelling is to be admired. I knew pretty quickly that there's no one like him." -Nicole "I fell quite hard, quite fast for Nicole's wonderful humor and beaming warmth and this was only solidified further the more I got to know her. From her love of classic horror movies to her interest in Robert Mitchum calypso records, if I ever managed to have a girl of my dreams manifest in real life, it would be her exactly as she is." -Paul

After four and a half years, Paul proposed out of the blue ("What are you doing?!" -Nicole) on a weekend trip to upstate New York. It's hard to believe how fast time flies and how lucky we are to have the chance to share our love story and our lives with you!
