Despite spending years just across the Lehigh river from each other, Evan and Aisling had to wait until February 2020 to find each other on Hinge. Their introduction may have been online, but their first date was at Bonn Place Brewing(a spot held near and dear to both of their hearts!) One date led to another; however, after only one month the pandemic hit. "Normal" dates were a thing of the past, which forced them to discover how much they loved cooking together and being outdoors!

A few jobs and apartments later, in July 2021, Evan and Aisling began renting a house in Emmaus, PA and moved in together for the first time. Living together meant facing some of the relationships biggest challenges and successes to date. Job changes and the growing pains of a relationship had to be worked through: all conquered by the unified belief that they are a team. The addition of a second cat to the family and the seeds Evan sowed in his woodworking skills were long term investments they are both proud of to this day.

In March 2024, they bought a house in Coplay, PA that they still happily call home. Fast forward to August, Evan proposed to Aisling while in Oyster Bay, Long Island. Aisling knew it was ultimately happening after designing the ring together, but Evan was still able to surprise her with a custom ring box and a blue-sky beach proposal! The weekend was spent with some close friends and will forever live on as a once in a lifetime moment.

For those that know Evan, it is no surprise that in April 2025 he decided to leave the corporate world to work for himself and pursue his woodworking. It was for this reason the couple got legally married on April 11, 2025, their five year anniversary, in Aisling's family home. The small, intimate, ceremony was perfect given the scenario.

Now, it's time to bring the party to the people! They are brimming with excitement to dance, laugh, drink, and make memories with the friends and family that have helped shape them into the people they are today.
