Matt and Stacy's story began the way many love stories begin these days—online! What started as simple messages (mostly about how funny they each think they are) quickly blossomed into endless conversations, laughter, and late-night chats. After a few weeks of getting to know each other, they took the leap to meet in person. Stacy may have been so nervous she could hardly make eye contact, but their friendship and connection continued to grow. Once they (ok-- Stacy) decided to stop digging in their (her) heels and admit they (fine--she!) had fallen in love, they felt it was time to conquer the next hurdle--introducing Stacy to Matt's kids. To start on a good foot, she showed up with their favorite Starbucks orders. That may have sealed the deal ;) An afternoon of bowling (don't ask who won) turned into another adventure to Dave and Busters the next weekend and well, here we are!

A few months later Matt took Stacy's parents out to lunch, got their blessing, and proposed later that day.

They’re beyond excited to start the next chapter of their story together.
