Matched on Hinge in February 2021. Brig sent the first message, things went quiet for a minute.. and then Joe double-texted. Turns out persistence pays off.
Meeting in Philadelphia, roughly halfway between their colleges in West Virginia and New York. Firehouse Subs (Joe's long-standing obsession), wandering the city, a Phillies game, and both realizing this was something special.
A couple weeks later, Joe flew down to Morgantown, visited Brig at WVU, and asked her to be his girlfriend.
Moves from NY to Phoenix, Boston, back to NY — this time Forest Hills. Road trips, concerts, Mets games, lazy days, and every day life in between.
Five years to the day, in the middle of the Sedona red rocks, Joe got down on one knee. Brig said yes. Now here we are!
Taconic Ridge Farm, Hillsdale, New York. Everyone we love, in one place. Forever to go!
