We met on Hinge in June of 2024 after Brian messaged Charlotte to ask about the black lab in her photos (yes — she’s hers… and yes — this absolutely worked as an opening line).

From that very first conversation, everything felt easy. We clicked right away, started planning little adventures together, and quickly realized this was something real.

Over the next year, our relationship grew through weekend getaways, exploring new towns, cozy nights in, and happy trips to Stowe. Brian brought his love of hiking and adventure (even if Charlotte still prefers the scenic routes to the steep ones), and Charlotte brought warmth, humor, and the sense of home Brian had been searching for. By January, we knew we were “each other’s person,” and we moved in together to start building a life we both couldn’t wait for.

Now, we’re counting down to celebrating with our closest people — thank you for being part of this next chapter with us. 💛
