Although we met through our moms much earlier in life, we really started flirting when Daniel began hanging out with Alexandra's brother Geoffrey in 2009. He asked Alexandra on a date to the city in the summer of '09 which her mother didn't allow her to go on because she was only 17!

Over 10 years later we reconnected, this time through Daniel's brother Alex. Daniel visited Alexandra Christmas weekend 2020 and it felt like we were able to pick up right where we left off. Over the next 3 months we took turns visiting each other in NJ and Tampa Florida until Alexandra did the unthinkable and moved to Tampa to find herself and fall in love!

On November 10th we got the surprise of a lifetime and found out we were expecting a baby! Although the news was unexpected we were overjoyed to be taking the next step in creating our family!

Daniel asked Alexandra to marry him exactly one month later in the South Street Seaport on Pier 17!

We were officially married in an intimate ceremony performed by Daniel's dad George.

After our wedding we went to Savannah and Miami on a minimoon then headed back to Tampa to pack up our apartment and move back to New Jersey!

On July 28, 2023 at 10:50 pm we welcomed our beautiful daughter Gemma to the world! She is pure love and joy and we are so grateful to be her parents.
