It all started in December of 2019. Ariel and Frankie matched on an online dating site and began to chat. Shortly after, Frankie and Ariel drifted apart. The pair had still followed each other on social media and in February 2020, they rekindled through a mutual connection. About a week after the reconnection on February 13th, Ariel and Frankie met up with another friend to hang out as a group. The trio went to korean barbecue, boba, and Hilltop Park to overlook the city lights. Ariel quickly grew feelings for Frankie, but Frankie turned her down TWICE!

Throughout the next month, Ariel and Frankie grew their relationship stronger as close friends. Exactly one month after their first time meeting, Frankie asked Ariel to go to the movies. He took her to his work at the time, CGV Cinemas. Frankie bought them Popeye's in the food court and they watched a movie together. Ariel thought nothing of it, but found out the next day that in Frankie's eyes, this was their first date! Frankie told Ariel he was starting to fall her because of their close friendship and on March 14th, 2020, they decided to call it official and began dating.

Only 3 days later, everything seemed like it was going to crumble because COVID hit and the world shut down. Frankie and Ariel didn't know when they would be able to see each other again or progress in their brand new relationship. As time went on, Frankie and Ariel began to see each other more and more often as regulations began to loosen up and everything didn't seem so uncertain and scary. During this time, they spent their time binging various TV and movie series and building a fish tank.

Over the next year, Frankie and Ariel grew extremely close and knew their love was unlike anything the two had felt before. In 2021, Frankie and Ariel began traveling together and started their tour of the 30 MLB stadiums across North America. The two visited Las Vegas, Hawaii, and San Diego among other places. They also saw all 5 MLB stadiums in California. They were falling harder and harder for each other every day.

In 2022, the two traveled even more. They got to go to Cancun, New York, Seattle, and more. They visited 3 more MLB stadiums, all out of state. The pair started to really blossom and get closer to each other's families. In October 2022, 2.5 years after they got together, Frankie and Ariel got the biggest news of their lives. Ariel was pregnant! The next few months were w whirlwind as they adjusted to the news and soon after found out they were expecting a baby girl (Frankie wanted a girl SO bad)!

In 2023, Frankie and Ariel experienced some of their biggest accomplishments. They traveled (yes, even more), prepared for their baby girl, went to more concerts, did their 9th MLB stadium trip, spent lots of time with family and friends, Ariel graduated college, and their baby girl made her arrival in June. Frankie and Ariel fell deeply in love with their daughter and felt like Rosalie was the perfect missing piece to add to their love story. In August, Frankie and Ariel moved out and got their own place to grow as a family.

As 2024 approached, Frankie and Ariel were thriving. They were living their best lives with their daughter, Rosalie, they both had new jobs, and were growing every day together to become the strongest couple they could be. After experiencing many highs and lows together, Frankie and Ariel were at their highest point and knew that there was no one else for each other.

On May 31st, 2024, Frankie took Ariel on a date to recreate the day they met. They went to korean barbecue, boba, and Hilltop Park again. The entire night, Frankie had a ring in his pocket waiting for the perfect moment. Through nerves and uncertainty surrounding how to pop the question, Frankie decided to ask Ariel to marry him back at her Mom and Stepdad's house, where they were babysitting Rosalie. Ariel obviously said yes and the couple was ecstatic! Frankie and Ariel began thinking of wedding plans immediately and continue to progress and grow in their relationship as a couple and a family every day. They cannot wait to seal the deal and become husband and wife, especially have you all there!
