Friday, January 18, 2013, any high school kid is trying to figure out plans for the night. Little did we know we would be meeting our future.

Corey was trying to find plans but, nothing felt right while Brandon was looking for the next move after a school event. You can call it a blind date or “my boyfriend is bringing a friend” but they call it fate. Their date consisted of spending the evening driving up the “haunted” Clinton Road in West Milford - those crazy kids. Corey was sitting shotgun and Brandon behind her, as they made their way back home to Park West Diner she was thinking 1 thing “Please don’t be shorter than me”. When Brandon stepped out of the car she thought, “Okay, I can work with this” as they looked eye to eye. It was perfect because Brandon automatically noticed Corey’s beautiful blue eyes. Corey knew he was something special when they split pancakes and he put her coat on at the end of the night.

It was very much love at first sight for those kids. They were out every weekend doing something. Whether it was taking advantage of their Great Adventure season pass, pretending to be 17 to get onto the beach for a cheaper price while having a cooler full of beer, or Brandon forcing Corey on a hike and then rewarding her with lunch. That was a typical summer weekend for those two back in the day.

Now 10 years later, after long-distance college, establishing a career, and their most significant accomplishment of buying a home together, they are finally writing a new book as husband and wife. After a year of home improvement and let’s be honest, financial recovery, Brandon took Corey to one of their favorite spots, The Adirondacks for a skiing/winter getaway. Corey and Brandon are no strangers to the area. It is extremely special to Corey and now Brandon. However, for this special week away they decided to do something a little different and book at the Whiteface Lodge Resort. They have stayed here a couple of times, but never as a couple or in the winter so they were ecstatic. With the snow falling before their dinner reservations, Brandon took Corey outside to take a pre-dinner photo — and little did she know he was going to propose right there. It was perfect.
