Claudia and Nick's story started in Palm Coast Florida, in March of 2021.

It was there, where they both flew in to celebrate the birthday of one of Claudia's best friends from college...who also happened to be Nick's sister Tori. Although Claudia had known Tori for years and met most of her family, her and Nick had never crossed paths until this trip brought them together forever...

Fast forward to November 2021, after an entire summer of Nick visiting Hoboken, where he and Claudia grew to know each other more and more each time he made his way across the George Washington Bridge. It was here where Nick and Claudia first started dating (and where Nick's trips across the bridge tripled over the next year and a half)

Claudia and Nick remained long distance throughout their relationship, taking countless car rides, flights and trains to see each other. Little did Claudia know that her train ride on March 22nd, 2023 would be the most important one.

It was this weekend where Nick took Claudia to Cape Cod for the very first time, and where he got down on one knee after a martini filled dinner and asked her to marry him. It was by far the easiest decision for Claudia to make, and even though her first response was "are you sure" what she said next solidified the beginning to the rest of their lives.
