Hannah and Joe met in 2015 at the University of South Florida through mutual college friends in Greek Life. From their first introduction, they realized that there was an undeniable spark between them. What they didn’t know was that this spark would lead to a lifetime of friendship, support, and love like no other. Each time they spoke, Joe would insist that Hannah give him a chance, until she finally agreed to attend a fraternity date function in October 2016. After just that one night of laughter and fun, Joe won her over and the two began seeing each other regularly. From study dates to nights out, they became inseparable. Joe officially asked Hannah to be his girlfriend at midnight, on New Year’s Eve 2016.

The rest of their college years spent side by side, and with friends and family, proved how much more fun life was together. With Hannah’s ability to plan a date at the drop of a hat, and Joe’s ability to do what he’s told... the years were filled with endless happy memories. In 2019, Joe graduated from USF and moved to Fort Lauderdale to continue his education toward becoming a Physician Assistant.The couple spent countless hours on the road back and forth, from city to city, across the state, until Hannah was finally able to move and join Joe in South Florida the following year. Picking up right where they left off, they got their first apartment together and their lives fit together seamlessly. Despite them both starting a new career and being overwhelmed by the change that life brought, they made sure to prioritize each other above all.

After six years of dating, it was only a matter of time before Joe asked Hannah for her hand in marriage. On January 20th, 2023 Joe popped the question with a beautiful candlelight proposal (and a little liquid courage) before they spent a romantic weekend getaway on South Beach. Now, together for over seven years, they are more in love than ever and are looking forward to starting their next chapter together and creating a lifetime full of happy memories as husband and wife. The next page in the story is about making their bond in marriage official, surrounded by the people who made this journey possible.
