Anthony and Nicole met back in the summer of 2016 - at Kings bowling alley in Legacy Place. Anthony's friends told him that another friend was coming to join them called "Nico". Anthony thought it was another bro but little did he know it would be a lady - that he would fall in love with.

On our first date, we were convinced that we were just friends getting dinner together, but we went to Burro Bar and enjoyed some drinks and food and started to recognize that we had feelings for each other.

Nicole had organized a time to go to brunch in South Boston on a Sunday morning and Anthony took full advantage of this and said why don't we go for a walk before our brunch together. Little did Nicole know Anthony planned this all along and got Nicole's family involved. He went to find the perfect outdoor space, with the most beautiful blooming flowers, at the Arnold Arboretum. He found an archway which he thought was the perfect place to ask Nicole to marry him, he made a plan with Nicole's sisters, where they could be hiding and ready to take pictures. After finding the perfect place, he then reached out to Nicole's parents and asked for her hand in marriage. Her parents were over the moon, they were very excited for Anthony and Nicole and their future together. Anthony then hatched the plan on the morning of Sunday April 24 at the Arnold Arboretum. Where Anthony and Nicole went for a lovely stroll and he got down on one knee under the arch (where Nicole's sisters were ready to snap the beautiful pictures). Nicole said yes about 16 times! It was truly the best day of our lives knowing we were going to start our forever together.
