We first met on Halloween 2017 through a couple of friends at the very bar in the photo above.

We spent the rest of that year, after our first date at Bar Louie, between OSU game days, multiple trips to Cooper's Hawk for wine tastings, and even a trip to the Columbus Zoo Lights.

We officially started dating on January 2, 2018, after Paige asked Stefan out, clarifying why his roommate called her his girlfriend.

The past six years have been filled with a lot of travel and time with friends and family. Whether it was a day trip to Dayton or a three-month stint in California, we almost always say yes to the next venture.

One place we always make sure to venture to is Paige's family cottage in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. 2025's trip will be for our wedding!

2024 has been the most exciting year for our relationship so far. We moved into our first home on March 30 with the help of our families. Stefan then graduated from Ohio State as a Nurse Practitioner after two full years of schooling. That same graduation weekend, Stefan proposed to Paige in the bathroom, of all places, while she was getting ready for dinner!

We are so excited to be planning a beautiful weekend for all of our close family and friends to come together and celebrate our wedding with us in the UP!
