K
ristie and Dan met through a mutual
friend in 2012 while out in Hoboken.
“Dan was actually working at a club
that night,” Kristie says. “But we
quickly shared phone numbers and he called me
the next day.” The couple went on their first date
a couple of days later. Dan proposed while they
were on vacation in May 2015. “We were on a
cruise and somewhere in the middle of the ocean
on our way to the Bahamas,” Kristie says. “Dan
had originally planned to propose on the island,
but realized the ring was too big and he didn’t
want me to risk wearing it and quickly losing it.”
So, he proposed during dinner. “The backup plan
worked out great and we celebrated on the ship
all night,” Kristie says. “Without cellphone recep-
tion, we were able to just spend the night letting
it all sink in and then call our friends and family
the next day to share the good news.”
