Danielle and Gabe matched on Bumble in 2021. Gabe filled out a Google Forms application that Danielle had posted on her profile.

After some texting, they decided to meet for the first time at the dog park—Eloise and Zaina love to be included! When the date was winding down, both Danielle and Gabe decided they wanted things to keep going. They went out to brunch, where a bunch of Danielle’s friends were eating (and spying on the first date).

From that point on, it is pretty much history! They bonded over outdoor activities, spending time with friends, live music, dogs, and more.

When Danielle graduated from grad school in May 2022, she got a job in Austin, TX. It took some convincing, but Gabe decided to leave behind Cedar Rapids and come along. Even if the dogs didn’t like sharing a house at first, Gabe, Danielle, and the dogs love living in Austin. They have amazing friends, spend a ton of time outdoors, and enjoy trying new foods from around the world!

We are so excited to celebrate our love story and can’t wait to have you join us.
