Kees and Emma first met in 2017 back at The University of Delaware. Emma was Kees friends’ date to a date party; little did she know she would meet her husband that night! Fast forward 4 years, Kees and Emma reconnected on Hinge. They were chatting for a bit but Kees then “ghosted” Emma for 6 months. But Kees actually went out to sea at that time for 6 months! They ran into each other at the bar Northbeach in Bethany that summer, but Emma was seeing someone else at the time. Kees knew Emma was something special that night even if she wasn’t available. Fast forward another 6 months they reconnected yet again on Hinge. They went on their first date at Harpoon Hanna’s in Fenwick Island, DE December 2019. Kees was 30 minutes late because he was baking cookies with his brother. Emma knew automatically that Kees was the one when he walked through the doors even if she was annoyed with him he was so late. The rest is history:)
