Laura and Matt swiped right on the dating app Tinder over 7 years ago. At the time their lives did not align, but Matt knew Laura was the girl for him. The two attended the New York Jets vs Washington Football Team game separately at Metlife Stadium. While being on social media, Laura noticed Matt was at the game and messaged him. They finally met at halftime where Matt proceeded to ask Laura if she was seeing anyone. Overwhelmed by the ask she said no and the rest was history!

Matt took Laura for a weekend getaway to Long Beach Island, New Jersey in celebration of their 4.5 year anniversary. The day after they arrived, the two spent the morning on the beach, following a planned lunch date by Matt at a nearby cafe. After the couple ate, the two then proceeded for a walk on the beach where they were greeted by Matt's family. Matt asked if his Aunt could take a photo of him and Laura, where he then grabbed her hands and dropped down on one knee. In shock, Laura exclaimed "Shut Up" 3 times and then said Yes!
