We can't seem to agree when we started dating, but according to Ben it's probably around here

Michelle getting used to life in Utah

Michelle's "going away" gift to Ben - a helicopter ride around NYC! Luckily, Ben wasn't going anywhere

A few months later, Ben invited Michelle home for Thanksgiving for the first time

A true miracle: the relationship lasted beyond Ben's attempts to teach Michelle how to ski

Somehow still all smiles

Ben's pandemic hobby was brewing beer (very original!), and for his 28th birthday Michelle surprised him with custom labels

Proving that he can cook!

Can you tell he's pretty funny

Never failing to make each other laugh

Many birthdays...

...and travels...

...and other people's weddings

Meeting Michelle's family in Thailand

Ben building his base tan

Always in each other's world

Ben meeting the world famous Teddy

Somewhere along the way, he developed eyes for other dogs

Scouting out wedding locations - maybe this one looks familiar? Here's a hint: just down the road from Flora Farms!

Valuable family time back in Thailand

Michelle even pretending to like tennis!

A little over 2 years later... he nervously popped the question

and she said maybe!

One year post proposal, we finally had a family engagement party at Casa Friedman

Thanks for scrolling! We can't wait to celebrate with everyone in Cabo in another year ;)
