Brian and Hope first met in Hoboken, NJ, in September 2021. Hope thought it would be a typical karaoke night with her friends until Brian arrived at the same apartment party. She noticed him standing in the center of the room and didn't know who he was. Hope was immediately drawn to him and found herself walking up to him. After introductions and giggles, Brian knew she was someone he wanted in his life.

From kickball and spontaneous days in the city to nights spent in empty dive bars, Brian and Hope always had love for each other. Regardless of where or if people were dancing, they always found each other on the dancefloor. Finally, after two years of being friends, Brian and Hope went on their first date. They shared life aspirations and relationship goals at Zack's, a cute corner restaurant in Hoboken. At the end of the date, they both knew they found their forever person.

The proposal happened on Christmas morning at Brian's childhood home. After Hope read a beautiful love letter, Brian (through all the tears) asked the question. Immediately after Hope said yes, his family ran down the stairs, and Hope's family ran through the side door. Happy tears, hugs, and speeches filled the room on that special Christmas morning. It was easily the best day of their lives.

Today, Brian and Hope live in Ossining, NY, with their adorable Yorkie Terrier King. The couple is beyond happy and grateful to celebrate their love with all of you. They are especially excited to see everyone on the dance floor!
