Emily and Chris first met in October 2020; at first glance Emily thought Chris was “tall and very handsome” and Chris thought Emily had “beautiful eyes and seemed like a kind person"...

Shortly after exchanging phone numbers, they learned that they had quite a few common interests. They both loved the TV Show Spongebob, Rock & Roll Music, and both had a goofy sense of humor.

Their first date was on November 21, 2020; they met up at Starbucks and went for a walk at the Wildlife Refuge followed by a car ride in the famous “Gaga Mobile”.

On December 19, 2020; following a trip to see the Jones Beach Christmas Light Show, Emily asked Chris to be her boyfriend to which Chris excitedly responded, “Yes”.

Throughout their relationship they have had many amazing/memorable dates; winery tours, a trip to Chris’ family cabin upstate, skiing trips with Emily’s family, movie dates at Island 16, going to NYC to see the Broadway Musical Wicked, and many more.

On June 22, 2024, Chris finally proposed to Emily to which she excitedly responded, “Yes!!!”

Thus beginning their journey to the altar…
