Our Wedding

In 2022, we matched on bumble. Soon after matching, we discovered that Nick's uncle Danny and Sophia's brother Nathan were childhood best friends, and our families already knew each other! In fact, Nathan and Danny had already been joking about setting us up! Our first date was hanging out, playing board games, listening to music, and getting to know each other. At first we were a bit shy and awkward together, but there was an immediate sense of comfort in each others' presence. As soon as we started hanging out, we both knew there was no reason to be on bumble anymore!

We hung out as friends first for three months. During which time, we bonded over our different interests, but the way we loved our interests in the same ways. We explored nature together, went to sports games together, experienced new adventures together, and bonded over our cultures, our families, and the way our personalities gave each other energy and confidence. Then, on April 10th 2022, Nick surprised Sophia with a bouquet of flowers and asked her to be his girlfriend. To which Sophia replied, "where did you pull those from?" and Nick replied, "My ass!" And the rest is history!
