It was a beautiful summer night in Grand Rapids, Michigan when Dom looked across Stella’s Lounge and noticed a stunning blonde wearing a Drew Brees Saints T-shirt amongst a sea of lumbermen. Turns out, the feeling wasn’t mutual since Danielle had no idea who Dom was when recalling the evening… Two years of chasing after one another passed (mostly Dom chasing Danielle) and we finally went on our official first date that wasn’t a UFP event. The connection was instant and boom the relationship was off to a start, only the slight distance between Michigan and Southern California separating the lovely young couple.

After a year of long distance, Dom decided to take the relationship to the next level and move out to California. Turns out, we never officially discussed moving in with one another until we were a couple hours away from “our” new apartment, which should give you pretty good perspective into our lives! Go with the flow and have fun while doing it!

Another year went by of living our lives in our tiny Southern California apartment and we decided to get engaged! In the moment, Dom was never able to say “will you marry me?” because he was crying so hard and Danielle never said yes because she was in utter shock. But don’t worry, we made sure we were on the same page once we both calmed down.

Now, here we are, getting ready to celebrate our love with all of you. We thank you for being part of our lives and making this experience so meaningful.
