Our Wedding

In 2013, when Cody &amp; Courtney were Freshman in College, they both had stumbled upon each others instagram pages due to mutual friends. One small joke lead to a multiple conversations, which stopped after a few months due to the distance and college life. Fast forward to February 2022, when a simple repost sparked a conversation which lead to going on their first date in Atlantic City at the Wonder Bar for Fried Pickles. On May 11th, 2022, on the train ride back from a Yankees Game, Cody had asked Courtney to be his girlfriend. Over the course of the year, they have fallen head over heels for each other. They both knew each other was "The One." Secretly, Cody had planned to propose to Courtney and brought a ring. On December 21st, 2023, they planned to go to the Philadelphia Zoo to see the Christmas Light show with both their families. As they went through the attractions, they passed the area where Cody was planning to propose, and had to back track (oops!). While taking pictures in front of the Turtle Tree (his late mother's favorite animal), Cody had prompted that they do a photo standing back to back. Courtney, confused and clueless, agreed. After a few seconds, Courtney turned around to see Cody on one knee. She couldn't even last two seconds without starting to cry! Cody chokingly started to ask "Will you Marry Me?" and Courtney, in shock, just shook her head yes!
