Despite growing up 15 minutes from each other and attending the same church/school events for years, Anthony and Emma did not meet until they matched on Hinge in July 2021 (Emma liked Anthony's profile first 😊). After talking for a few days, Anthony suggested they meet up at a wine bar - only to find out Emma doesn't drink - so they settled on mini golf and ice cream. They quickly realized Anthony attended the same grade school as Emma's cousins and would have been at many of the same events growing up. Emma even found a photo she took at a Trunk or Treat in 2014 with Anthony's dad in the background! Somehow the two never managed to cross paths in those early years. When they did finally meet, things clicked between them almost instantly, and they soon realized how many of their “boxes" the other checked. Since then, Anthony and Emma have been inseparable and have gone on some great trips to California and, more recently, Hawaii. They also adopted a dog, Spencer, and two cats, Buster and Bandit. They are so excited to see where this next chapter of marriage leads!
