Lauren and Evan went on their first date on January 31, 2019 (which just so happens to also be Evan's dad Allan’s birthday). They met for drinks at local bar Good Robot and hit it off.

They have had many adventures over the course of their time together - trips to Fundy, the Valley, Cape Breton, Lunenburg, LaHave, etc. They love to explore the Maritimes and discover new places to eat and drink.

In early 2022, they took the big leap of buying a house together and both uprooted from many years in Halifax's North End to living in Dartmouth. They have both embraced their new community and have especially enjoyed the Dartmouth Food Crawl and exploring all of the restaurants within walking distance of their home (which is a lot).

A little over a year after buying their home, on March 29, 2023, Evan asked Lauren to marry him on top of the Alderney ferry, a true Dartmouth staple. She said yes, of course!
