Our StorySam and Dan met one fateful evening in the spring of 2013 while visiting mutual friends, connecting instantly over their shared passions and dancing the night away! It did not take long for love to find them; it was clear from the start that they were meant to be together and they became an official pair that very same spring. Later that fall, Dan moved down to New York City to join Sam as she began her journey in nursing school at NYU and their relationship blossomed as they started building a life together.
After spending their first three years as a couple in the city that never sleeps, Dan proposed to Sam on May 15th, 2015 in Washington Square Park. The park is a very special place because it is in the same neighborhood where they spent many days and nights exploring, learning, and falling in love with Manhattan and each other. Sam answered a very enthusiastic YES, already knowing that she wanted to spend her life with him from the very first night they met! After one more year in the city conquering the hustle and bustle of the busy streets, Dan and Sam moved back upstate to settle down and start the next chapter of their lives.
Dan and Sam's love story would not be complete without mentioning their extremely beloved furry children, Bandit and Layla. One feisty little boy that lives up to his name, Bandit, and one very sweet and very delicate little girl, Layla, make this couple a happy family of four! They now live in Cohoes, NY where Dan works as a software engineer and Sam as a Labor and Delivery Nurse at Albany Medical Center. Dan and Sam can’t wait to tie the knot on August 5th, and someday soon start a family with children that have a little less fur…
