Nick & Mara both grew up in the South Hills of Pittsburgh, but they would not meet until years later in 2019 through one of Mara's coworkers and one of Nick's good friends! They hit it off instantly. Soon enough they were meeting each other's families. There was so much of a connection, that Nick began golfing every Tuesday with Mara's family... and has for the last 4 years! They feel incredibly blessed to have such close relationships with each other's families.

In the 4 years of being together, they bought a house to share with their 2 pups. Then they thought, why not add one more!? They both can agree that the biggest joy they have is their three dogs; Finley, Bailey, & Remi! When they are not spending time at home with their pups, you can find them going out to dinner, getting ice cream, cheering on the Pittsburgh sports teams, competing in intense games of mini golf, enjoying the good old outdoors, going to country concerts, and spending time with friends & family!

November 23rd, 2022 was one of the best days of their lives. The day Nick got down on one knee and asked Mara one of the most important questions of her life. The first chapter of their forever began. Nick & Mara truly cannot wait to spend the rest of their lives together and are looking forward to all the adventures to come!
