About Us.
Sam and Brad met in late 2016 on a cold rainy winter night. We were both working an event together and never expected to meet each other - in fact we both weren’t looking for a relationship at the time. We would work another event together in November 2016 after which Sam would proceed to text Brad asking him out on their first date.
Later in December they would go on their first date which was supposed to last for all of 2-hours, seeing a Broadway show: The Great Comet. But the date ended up lasting a full 10-hours. We went from the gym, to the movies, dinner, and then later that evening, the show. Looking back, they both recall knowing on that first date that they would spend the rest of their lives together.
It was a love story that would later include 8-months of international long distance, moving in together into our own place in NYC, tons of dates, relationship firsts, tons of long late night chats, trips, friends, good food, and memories that will last a life time. In November 2021, we got engaged in the beautiful desert of Arizona after celebrating Thanksgiving with family. It was a beautiful moment we both look back on with so much joy. We moved to Minnesota from NYC in 2021 right after things started to settle down from the pandemic in NYC, and haven’t looked back since!
Being in the Midwest now has been an adjustment. New jobs, new city, and a new home. We’re beyond thrilled to be here and see what else this beautiful state has to offer. We’ve only scratched the surface of our amazing life together and we’re just so grateful we get to share out story with each and every one of you.
