Swiped right twice, got it right for life.
“I feel like I won the lottery. The love lottery.”
— Ethan
“Like I always say… we are best friends who happened to fall in love. Twice.”
— Savannah

We met in the most romantic of ways… Tinder! One swift swipe right started our lifetime adventure together. Dating briefly in early 2020, breaking up due to distance during COVID-19, and refinding each other (yes, on Tinder, again!) later that year, we certainly have had an untraditional love story. It’s one for the (modern) ages.
And the rest is history
