...that love found us in Wantagh, Long Island, dressed as Velma from Scooby Doo and a peanut butter sandwich.

The party was at Pat Cooke’s house — a Halloween tradition that had become legendary among his circle of friends. Mikey and Pat had met in college at Oswego, forming a friendship that had only gotten stronger over the years. Sara met Pat through her friend Victoria, who she met during her time at FIT. They’d all been friends for some time but Mikey and Sara's paths had never crossed despite growing up 5 minutes from each other’s hometowns.

Neither of us had any intentions of meeting someone that night, but there was an instant spark and an undeniable attraction when we first introduced ourselves. In typical Long Island fashion, the get together eventually evolved from a house party to bar hopping, and over the course of the night we took every chance we could to talk and get to know one another. After an unforgettable evening of dancing, laughing, and drinking, the night came to an end with Sara’s famous last words to Mikey – “Facebook me!” Which Mikey promptly did the next morning.

Two months later we made it official and have spent every single day together since.

Our relationship has been nothing short of a dream since that incredible, notorious night 6 years ago. From saying “I love you” for the first time in a Pennsylvania diner parking lot to getting our first apartment together to standing at the overlook of Aquinnah Cliffs in Martha’s Vineyard with tears in our eyes and Mikey down on one knee, our hearts have never been more full than they are right now.

We can’t even begin to express how excited we are as we near our wedding day and how incredibly grateful we are to share our big day with all of our loved ones. To all of our friends and family who have supported us and been a part of our favorite memories since day one, we love you endlessly. Thank you for being a part of our lives and sharing our love.
