The Love Story of Ann Nicole and Brandon:

It all started with a swipe on Tinder in December of 2016, while Ann Nicole was in college at Pepperdine. Brandon swiped on Ann and gave her the corny Harry Potter pick-up line, "Is this the Hogwarts Express or are we headed somewhere magical?" Their first date was on December 10th, 2016 to Universal Studios, Hollywood to visit Harry Potter World. The connection between them was instant and, after many butter beers, the night came to an end. Ann went into final exams and Brandon went home wondering when he could see her again. A week later they had their second date and they quickly started to fall in love. Ann and Brandon's first trip together was to Mammoth Mountain. Ann had told him that she knew how to snowboard but they had very different terms of snowboarding. Luckily, they weren't able to get many laps because there was big snowstorm that weekend.

Covid happened and the hospitality industry in LA was not doing well so Brandon started to look for a new job. He found one in Lake Tahoe, CA. Ann joined Brandon in Tahoe in December 2020 where they found a love for the outdoors. Brandon was finally able to teach Ann how to snowboard and, despite all odds, Ann is now an avid snowboarder. Their winters are dedicated to snowboarding and their summers are spent at the lake. Over 8 years, they have grown through the ups and downs, becoming stronger together. They have developed a great passion for cooking, while Vivian cleans the floor to make sure no food goes to waste.

On New Years Eve 2023, Brandon proposed to Ann under the fireworks in Tahoe.
