Allie and Gabe have been going to school together since pre-school but didn’t get to know each other until their senior year of high school. They became friends quickly and their friendship continued throughout college. They always felt a connection with each other and finally decided to take a leap with their friendship into something more (with the help from friends).

Their first date was to a comedy club (or to the Toledo Zoo Christmas lights - it depends on if you ask Allie or Gabe). From there, they began spending more and more time together and meeting each others friends and family, where they saw the love they had for each other grow more every day.

On April 1, 2023, Gabe got down on one knee and asked Allie to marry him! The proposal was with both sets of parents, which they wouldn’t have wanted any other way. They are so excited to celebrate their love with all of you!
