Our Story

Better Together

Picture of Better Together

Welcome to our love story, a unique match that began in the winter of 2018. We are Emily Michalski and Michael Dost, the dynamic duo whose connection unfolded in the digital realm, bringing us together in a way that only fate could orchestrate.


Our story began with a right swipe, a flirty message from Mike to Emily on how he could join the Bills Mafia, and the rest, as they say, is history. Yes, we met on Tinder, and little did we know this digital spark would ignite a flame that burns on today. Our love has grown deeper than we could imagine. It has even expanded to include the love we have for our fur baby, Ruby. Our journey is proof that love can blossom in the most unexpected places—online, where every swipe brought us closer to each other.


From that initial message to the first date, we discovered a connection that transcended the digital screen. Mike won Emily over with some pizza and Dinosaur BBQ. Sometimes the stomach truly is the way to the heart.


As avid lovers of live music, we've spent countless evenings attending concerts, dancing to the rhythm of our favorite bands (even though Mike claims he doesn't dance), and creating memories that culminate to form our relationship. Music has been the backdrop to our love story, with each song carrying the echoes of shared laughter, late-night conversations, and stolen glances that turned into a lifetime of affection.


Fast forward to June 15, 2024, the day we've been eagerly waiting for. The venue is set, the playlist is curated with our favorite tunes, and we can't wait to celebrate the love that started with a swipe and grew into a symphony of a lifetime.


We extend our heartfelt invitation to you, our incredible friends and family, to join us on this special day. Your presence will add to the magic as we say "I do" and embark on this beautiful journey called marriage.


So, here's to the Tinder tale that brought us together, the music that serenades our love, and the incredible people who have supported us along the way. Let's dance, laugh, and make beautiful memories together.


With love and excitement,

The Future Mr. and Mrs. Dost
