April 24, 2019: Catherine had just gotten off work and changed in her car, expecting to make new friends and eat some delicious tacos. Giulio had a stomach ache from eating moldy muffins the day before. With 12 guys and 12 girls, 8 minutes a piece - they were the last (and most tired) to talk to each other. They bonded over their childhood in The Antelope Valley and the rest is history. This relationship had its best chance of survival because Giulio moved less than 5 minutes from Catherine within the first year. We bought a house together in August 2022, and Giulio proposed the following April with friends and family to help celebrate. We can’t wait to get this party started and add another chapter to our story!
