Like so many modern love stories, ours started with a dating app! Peter was especially excited to match with a St. Louis native, hoping he'd finally found a fellow Cardinals fan. Unfortunately for him, Brooke was a Cubs fan. Thankfully, he decided to give her a chance anyway!

Peter was actually the first person Brooke went on a date with from the app. We met up at a local bar that just happened to be hosting bingo night, and before we knew it, the whole evening had flown by. What started as a casual first date turned into the beginning of something very special.

While the first date went great, the second date was when things got serious… Peter met Brooke's two dogs over coffee! Luckily, everyone approved, and the rest is history.

Since then, we've made so many wonderful memories together, from traveling to new places and cozy nights at home to bringing our two families together. Peter has also put his love of cooking to good use, taking on the challenge of recreating all the gluten-filled foods Brooke misses (and becoming quite the gluten-free chef along the way!).

From the very beginning, being together has felt easy and natural. Whether we're off on a new adventure or just enjoying a quiet night at home, we've found that even the simplest days are better together.

Our relationship has been filled with so much love, laughter, and little adventures, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found each other. Now, we can't wait to spend the rest of our lives making more memories, cheering each other on, and building a life together.

We can't wait to celebrate this next chapter with all of our favorite people!
